AC1450 Smart WiFi Router
To configure port triggering, you need to know which inbound ports the application needs,
and the number of the outbound port that will trigger the opening of the inbound ports. You
can usually determine this information by contacting the publisher of the application or user
groups or news groups.
To enable port triggering:
1.
Select
Advanced > Advanced Setup > Port Forwarding/Port Triggering
.
2.
Select the
Port Triggering
radio button.
3.
Clear the
Disable Port Triggering
check box.
Note:
If the Disable Port Triggering check box is selected after you
configure port triggering, port triggering is disabled. However, any
port triggering configuration information you added to the router is
retained even though it is not used.
4.
In the Port Triggering Timeout field, enter a value up to 9999 minutes.
This value controls the inactivity timer for the designated inbound ports. The inbound
ports close when the inactivity time expires. This value is required because the router
cannot determine when the application has terminated.
To add a port triggering service:
1.
On the Port Triggering screen, click
Add Service
.
