Application Rules
Some applications require multiple connections, such as Internet gaming, video conferencing, Internet telephony and
others. These applications have difficulties working through NAT (Network Address Translation). Special Applications
makes some of these applications work with the DGL-4500. If you need to run applications that require multiple
connections, specify the port normally associated with an application in the “Trigger Port” field, select the protocol type
as TCP or UDP, then enter the firewall (public) ports associated with the trigger port to open them for inbound traffic.
The DGL-4500 provides some predefined applications in the table on the bottom of the web page. Select the application
you want to use and enable it.
