You don't even need that. Your typical cheap home router can usually be
set to forward one WAN side port to another.

Mine won't (netgear wgr614). It only forwards WAN to LAN. To forward to
another machine outside my LAN I have to use some other port forwarding
mechanism. I was under the impression that that's how most home routers
worked. Maybe I'm wrong.
