I have setup a webserver, it can browsed from remote/outside internet clients, but it cannot b browse from any local clients (same subnet). If no changes on the /etc/hosts file (to map the FQDN hostname to local IP address for webserver, why the webserver cannot browse from any local clients?
Then someone from IRC provide me a link to figure out the issue.

Also, there is also another thing to take note:
The Port Forwarding is work for external clients access to the webserver (passed thought the router to do the port forwarding) and then access to our local webserver. If our local clients (same subnet with our webserver then we need to change the /etc/hosts file to map the hostname to the local IP address of our webserver, otherwise we may end-up at the router and the router web management will be prompted.)
