Wireless-G Router User's Manual
Applications & Gaming Page – Port Triggering Panel
This panel lets you set the router to watch outgoing data for specific port numbers.
The IP address of the computer that sends the matching data is remembered by the
router, so that when the requested data returns through the router, the data is sent to
the proper computer by way of IP address and port mapping rules.
Application: Enter the name of the application for which you will do port triggering.
This name is for your own reference only.
Triggered Range: For each application, list the outgoing triggered port range. Check
the application's documentation for the port number(s) needed.
Start Port: Enter the starting port number of the triggered range.
End Port: Enter the ending port number of the triggered range. This can be the same
as the starting port.
Forwarded Range: For each application, list the incoming forwarded port range.
Check the application's documentation for the port number(s) needed.
Start Port: Enter the starting port number of the forwarded range.
End Port: Enter the ending port number of the forwarded range. This can be the same
as the starting port.
Enable: Select Enable to enable port triggering for the indicated application.
Click Save Settings to apply the new settings, or click Cancel Changes to cancel
any unsaved changes.
Applications and Gaming Page – DMZ Panel
The DMZ feature allows one local computer to be exposed to the Internet for use of a
special-purpose application such as Internet gaming or videoconferencing. All
incoming requests for services not handled by the port forwarding feature will be
directed to this computer. This computer should have its own firewall for security. It
also must have a fixed IP address (it cannot be a DHCP client).
To expose one PC, select Enable. Then, enter the computer's IP address in the DMZ
Host IP Address box. This feature is disabled by default.
Click Save Settings to apply the new settings, or click Cancel Changes to cancel
any unsaved changes.
