Can you connect locally on 18081? That is the unrestricted RPC port that you should always keep closed to the outside world.

As long as you restrict RPC on 18081 its fine to externally bind, 18089 is just an indicator that its intended for public use.
Edit: Looks like my monerod isnt letting me externally bind to 18081 like it is 18089, maybe you're right or I'm missing a command.
Set the external bind IP to 0.0.0.0 and then use your firewall to block/forward what you need?
I'm using 18089 restricted and public, can I use this data into my block explorer?
