connection using the trigger port range 66660-7000. The IRC server

responds by verifying the username and creating a new connection to the

unable to determine which PC is requesting for IRC access. When Port

Trigger is enabled, the router assigns an incoming port to receive the

inbound data. This incoming port closes once a specic time period has

elapsed because the router is unsure when the application has been

terminated.

computer to send the router a request/trigger.
