Sorry, you are right.

What I want is to redirect the request throught a firewall for the
following case:

Suppose to have a web server 1 that respond to the address
localhost:3000
and a second web server 2 that responds on localhost:4000 in a local
area network. Furthermore there is a additional IIS server (the only
server exposed on internet), that is connected through firewall to
internet. I would like that if I set the following URL on a client
(placed in the internet network):

   http://localhost/server1 the IIS web server will redirect the
    request to the localhost:3000 web server (it isen't a IIS server)
   and if the url http://localhost/server2 is set on the same client
   the second web server at address localhost:4000 will serve this
request
 

Can anyone send me the right configuration for this settings for the
IIS server ?
I know that command "redirect" that change the url address on the
client side doesn't work because there is a firewall. I mean that if
the client will change the http://localhost/server1 to
http://localhost:3000 automatically, it appears as a user type
http://localhost:3000 on the client address bar, and because there is
a firewall in the middle (with port 3000 and 4000 closed), this
approach doesn't work. The IIS server shuold translate the address
http://localhost/server1 to a http request to the internal LAN
http://localhost:3000
