5.2.3 Trigger
A trigger is used to deal with application protocols that set up separate sessions. Some
application protocols, such as NetMeeting, open the primary sessions and secondary
connections at the same time during the normal operations. The trigger tells the
security mechanism to handle these secondary sessions and instruct it how to handle
them. The trigger handles the situation dynamically, allowing the secondary sessions
only when appropriate. These newly triggered sessions are not restricted by the
firewall.
Click the [Trigger] tab in the security setup page to enter the corresponding page shown
in Figure 5-10.
