Virtual Servers
Virtual Server allows you to direct incoming traffic from WAN side (identified by
Protocol and External port) to the Internal server with private IP address on the LAN
side. The Internal port is required only if the external port needs to be converted to
a different port number used by the server on the LAN side. A maximum 32 entries
can be configured.
To add a Virtual Server, simply click the Add button. The following will be displayed.

Port Triggering
Some applications require that specific ports in the Router's firewall be opened for
access by the remote parties. Port Trigger dynamically 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.
