I have a query , If I want to host local server for private use on my network and want to access remotely via the static ip in the modem/ router , what option would you suggest to use from the router / modem. 

I don't think DMZ is an option now . Ash

 

I want to understand, how can I use one of the methods without violating security protocols of KPN .

Never use DMZ to access a computer that is absolutely insecure.

Make sure the LAN IP address of your computer will not change by defining a DHCP reservation in the Experia/KPN Box.

Setup port-forwardings to the IP address of the PC for the ports you want to be able to access.

My Laptop is on Local static IP , I have reserved IP for this Mac address. Can I use following by creating Manual Rule ? Do you have any instruction to use this with security without exposing to probable security threats .

You can use the port-forwarding functionality.

Ofcourse you should only forward those ports needed to access the functionality you need on that PC.

I don't know what you want to achieve but if it is that you want to take over that computer through remote desktop than I would advise you to use a VPN connection to your home network and access the PC within that VPN connection instead of just forwarding the port for RDP to your PC.

Than just forward the port under which the webservice can be reached.
