Port Trigger
Port Trigger
Port Triggering allows the Router to watch outgoing data for specific port
numbers. The Router remembers the IP address of the computer that
sends the matching data, so that when the requested data returns
through the Router, the data is pulled back to the proper computer by way
of IP address and port mapping rules.
To add a new Port Triggering rule:
1. Name: enter an application name for this port triggering rule.
2. Protocol: click
and select a protocol from the drop down list –
TCP+UDP (default), TCP, UDP, or Other…
3. Triggered Range: enter the Start Port and End Port for the
triggered port number range of the Internet application (please
check its documentation for the port number(s) needed).
4. Forwarded Range: enter the Start Port and End Port for the
forwarded port number range of the Internet application (please
check its documentation for the port number(s) needed).
