I am thinking to forward my localhost ports [..]
are you referring to NAT here, or some other way of 'forwarding'?
In any case: yes, you'll have to somehow open those ports on a routable IP. Whether that is done directly (ie: by giving your ROS machine a routable IP or by running the rosbridge
nodes on a machine with a routable IP) or indirectly (ie: by using port forwarding in case of a NAT) should make no difference.
