To add a new rule, follow the steps below.
Once the Router is configured, the operation is as follows:
Click the Add New… button. The following screen will be displayed, as shown in Figure 8-5.
Select a common application from the Common applications drop-down list, then the Trig-
ger Port field and the Incoming ports field will be automatically filled. If the Common applica-
tions do not have the application you need, enter the Trigger port and the Incoming Ports
manually.
Select the protocol used for Trigger Port from the Trigger protocol drop-down list, either
TCP,
UDP,
or
All.
Select the protocol used for Incoming Ports from the Incoming protocol drop-down list,
either
TCP
or
UDP,
or
All.
Select
Enable
in Status field.
Click the
Save
button to store the new rule.
A local host makes an outgoing connection using a destination port number defined in the
Trigger port field.
The router records this connection, opens the incoming port or ports associated with this
entry in the
Port triggering
table, and associates them with the local host.
When necessary the external host will be able to connect to the local host using one of the
ports defined in the
Incoming Ports
field.
