4.3.3 Port Trigger
Port range triggering opens a predetermined incoming port for a
limited period of time whenever a client on the local area network
makes an outgoing connection to a specified port. Port triggering
is used in the following scenarios:
• More than one local client needs port forwarding for the
same application at a different time.
• An application requires specific incoming ports that are
different from the outgoing ports.
To set up Port Trigger:
1. From the navigation panel, go to
Advanced Settings
>
WAN
>
Port Trigger
tab.
2. On the
Enable Port Trigger
field, tick
Yes
.
3. On the
Well-Known Applications
field, select the popular
games and web services to add to the Port Trigger List.
