Yes, it is. But you want to configure a port-forward to this IP address.

So use this IP address:

when configuring the port-forward.

If you want to open port 80 for a local device, please change the router’s remote management port (service port) number first, since its default number is 80.

Leave the Remote Management IP Address as it is.

Here's a port-forwarding tester - https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/

Make sure that your router WAN port IP address is public.

If you have a private IP address on the WAN port port-forwarding won't work.

This would be the IP address of the device in your home LAN which you want to access from outside.

Here's (Case 1) a guide on configuring virtual-server (port-forward).

If you've set a DHCP address reservation (instead of static IP address - it's still from your LAN) then point to that IP address.
