So , you want to run a web-server from home (why? , for testing purposes, of course! , don`t deploy anything on home server. Your ISP will eventually block you...)
Behind a router:
1. Change tomcat back to port-80.
2. Assign a LAN static-ip to the web-server on the LAN.
3. configure your router to do port-forwarding on port 80 to your static-ip.
4. Use a dynamic-dns to map a domain into your ever-changing ISP provided ip address.
And you are ready to go.
