Port Triggering Page
Path:
Advanced > Port Triggering
The Port Triggering page lets you manage external access to specific ports on your home network
using automatic triggering.
When port triggering is enabled, the Gateway monitors outbound traffic. If the Gateway detects traffic
on the specified outbound port, it remembers the IP address of the computer that sent the data, triggers
the incoming port, and then forwards the incoming traffic to the triggering computer.
To use port triggering, you specify which service type and port number you want to track, along with
other related parameters. This allows the Gateway to pass the special applications to the appropriate
ports you specified.

Description
Service Name
Enter a name to identify the trigger. The name should be unique and allow you to differentiate
this service from others you may define.
Service User
Select a service user from the user list. Choices are:
All Users
Single User = enter the IP address of the user in the IP Address field.
IP Address
If you set Service User to Single User, enter the IP address of the user.
Service Type
Select the type of protocol you want to use with the trigger. Choices are:
TCP/UDP
TCP
UDP
For example, to track the H.323 protocol, the protocol type should be TCP.
Triggering Starting Point
Enter a starting port to be used as the trigger for the special application. For example, to track
the H.323 protocol, the starting port should be 1720.
Triggering Ending Point
Enter an ending port to be used as the trigger for the special application. For example, to track
the H.323 protocol, the ending port should be 1720.
Triggered Starting Port
Enter the starting port to be forwarded.
Triggered Ending Port

DMZ Page
Path:
Advanced > DMZ
If you have a local client computer that cannot run an Internet application properly behind the firewall,
you can configure the computer for unrestricted two-way Internet access by defining it as a Virtual DMZ
host. A DMZ allows a single computer on your LAN to expose its ports to the Internet. When doing this,
the exposed computer is no longer “behind” the firewall. Therefore, placing a computer in the DMZ
should be considered temporary because the firewall is no longer able to provide any security to it.

Enabled = enable Gateway’s DMZ feature.
Disabled = disable Gateway’s DMZ feature. This selection makes the DMZ Host field unavailable.
DMZ Host
Enter the IP address of the computer to be used as the DMZ server.

QoS Page
Path:
Advanced > QoS
The QoS page lets you configure the Gateway to deliver better resource reservation control. Wireless
networks offer an equal opportunity for all devices to transmit data from any type of application.
Although this is acceptable for most applications, multimedia audio and video applications are
particularly sensitive to the delay and throughput variations that result from this “equal opportunity”
wireless access method. For multimedia applications to run well over a wireless network, a Quality of
Service (QoS) mechanism is required to prioritize traffic types and provide an “enhanced opportunity”
wireless access method.
The QoS page lets you enable or disable QoS settings.
Note:
You can change QoS settings without having to reboot the Gateway.
