Port Forwarding and Port
Triggering [Router Mode]
As an advanced function of the AP firewall, you can use port forwarding and port
triggering to set up port traffic rules for Internet services and applications. These rules
apply specifically to ports. You need networking knowledge to set up port traffic rules.
Note: In AP mode, the port forwarding and port triggering settings that are described
in this chapter are not required because they can be provided by the routing device to
which the AP connects. Therefore, in AP mode, these port forwarding and port triggering
settings are masked out in the local browser
This chapter includes the following sections:
•
Port forwarding to a local server for services and applications [router mode]
•
Port triggering for services and applications [router mode]
Note: In this chapter, we refer to the access point as the AP.
