Port TriggeringPort Triggering is used for special Internet applications whose
outgoing ports differ from the incoming ports. For this feature, the Router will
watch outgoing data for specific port numbers. The Router will remember the
IP address of the computer that sends a transmission requesting 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. Click the
Port Triggeringbutton to set up triggered ports, and follow these instructions:
1. Enter the Application Name of the trigger (see Figure 6-24).
2. Enter the Outgoing Port Range used by the application. Check with the
Internet application for the port number(s) needed.
3.Enter the Incoming Port Range used by the application. Check with the
Internet application for the port number(s) needed.
4.Click the Applybutton to save your changes. Click the Cancelbutton to
cancel your unsaved changes. Click the Closebutton to return to the Port
Forwardingscreen.
To save your changes on this page, click the Applybutton. To cancel any
unsaved changes on this page, click the Cancelbutton.To get more information
