Port Trigger
Port forwarding redirects incoming network traffic from a pre-defined WAN port
range to a pre-defined LAN IP Address and LAN port range. Port triggering is a way
to automate port forwarding: outbound traffic on predefined ports ('triggering
ports') causes inbound traffic to specific incoming ports to be dynamically
forwarded to the initiating host, while the outbound ports are in use. This allows
computers behind a NAT-enabled router on a local network to provide services
that would normally require the computer to have a fixed address on the local
network. Port triggering triggers can open an incoming port when a client on the
local network makes an outgoing connection on a predetermined port or range of
ports.
In the Port Trigger page you can specify up to 15 rules with parameters for Port
Triggering.
