EFW + CCTV Camera + Port Forwarding

Hey guys

I have the following setup.

Internet Router -> Endian Firewall -> network

All traffic from the internet goes to the internet router, which the router forwards to the endian firewall, and the endian firewall then forward accordingly.
Now we have a CCTV camera setup installed, i can access it from the local network fine, i go to "lan ip + port" and it works. But im trying to set it up from outside the network to view the cameras now.

I forward port (lets say port 2000) in the router, to forward port 2000 to endian, then in endian I forward port 2000 to the Lan IP address of the DVR.
But it doesnt work. I cannot even telnet the port.

Can anyone tell me if theres something extra i must do?

I tested by bypassing the firewall and it works, so it must be a setting in endian I think?

It would be better if you set the router as transparent for every service. Then you could use a public IP to NAT an internal host (Port forwarding/NAT from the public IP to the internal IP on the service(s) you want).
I suggest you to disable any kind of policy on the router.

Why do you have the router in your network?  Having two NATs is not needed, as Endian performs NAT functions.
