Configuring the Advanced Settings
Port triggering
If you configure port triggering for a certain application, define a so-called trigger port
and the protocol (TCP or UDP) this port uses. To this trigger port you then assign the pub-
lic ports that have to be opened for the application.
You can select known Internet services for this or assign ports or blocks of ports manu-
ally.
ì
To set up port triggering for a service, select
Port Triggering

Address Trans-
lation (NAT)

Select the required application from the
Predefined applications
list.
ì
Click on the
Add
button. The data for the required service is entered on the screen.

screen manually:
