9.2.2 Port Triggering

Some applications require specific ports in the Router’s firewall to be open for access by remote parties. Port Triggering opens up the ‘Open

Ports’ in the firewall when an application on the LAN initiates a TCP/UDP connection to a remote party using the ‘Triggering Ports’.

The Router allows the remote party from the WAN side to establish new connections back to the application on the LAN side using the ‘Open

Ports’. A maximum 32 entries can be configured.

To add a Trigger Port, simply click the Add button. The following will be displayed.
