This is my first attempt to enable a web application so excuse me if a
use the wrong terminology.

what I am attempting to do is enable a web application that is running
on a local server running IIS from our main internet web server.
Basically, our main web-site is being hosted our main web-site. We
would like to re-direct a certain url from this site to another web
server to run a specific application.

For instance, assume www.mainsite.com is the primary site and is
currently accessible through the web. We would like all requests for
www.mainserver.com/nbc to be re-directed to another web server running
on our domain. This web server does not have an external IP address,
but can be accessed internally from the main web server. Is this
possible? If so, what changes need to be made to the web server,
router, and/or proxy server? If not, will we need to obtain an
external IP for the additional web server?

Hello,

Redirect only redirects the request. There has to be possible to make a
connection to the new webserver from the client, unless you use a reverse
proxy. So, the webserver needs a public IP, or some other public IP is
forwarded to this webserver.
