3.5.3 Virtual Server Setup
This screen lets you specify some services to be visible by outside users. The router can
detect an incoming service request and forward it to the specific local computer to handle it.
For example, a user can assign a PC in the LAN to act as a Web server inside and expose it
to the outside network. An outside user can browse inside the Web server directly while it is
protected by NAT.

3.5.4 Port Triggering
This screen allows 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 pulled back to the proper computer by
way of IP address and port mapping rules.
Predefined Trigger Rules — Select one of the predefined rules from the drop-down menu.
Rule Name — Enter any name you want to use for identification.
Trigger Protocol — Select either “TCP” or “UDP” as the outbound port protocol.
Trigger Port — This is the out going (outbound) range of port numbers for this particular
application. NOTE: Individual port numbers are separated by a comma (e.g., 47824, 5776).
To input a port range, use a hyphen to separate the two port numbers (e.g., 3300-3800).
