Port Range Triggering
This is one of the NAPT (Network Address Port Translation) feature. Port Range
Triggering is used for special applications that can request a port to be opened on demand.
For this feature, the Wireless Router will watch outgoing packets for specific port
numbers. This will trigger the Wireless Router to allow the incoming packets within the
specified forwarding range and forward those packets to the triggering PC. One of the
example applications is QuickTime. It would use port 1000 for outgoing packets and
2000 for incoming packets.
