A Surfboard 6120 is not a router it is only a bridge thus you cant and dont need to port forward on it.

What port number are you trying to forward and for what application?

What is the Make and Model of your Router?

Who is you ISP?

The reason for the different number is one is you public IP and one is you private IP, your router dose Network Address and Port Translation (NAT or NAPT), look at this for some information on why its needed and how it works (»en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_ad···nslation)
