Example: Special Applications
If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, then specify the port (outbound)
normally associated with that application in the "Trigger Port" field. Then select the protocol type
(TCP or UDP) and enter the public ports associated with the trigger port to open them up for
inbound traffic.
Example:
ID
Trigger Port
Trigger Type
Public Port Public Type
Comment
1
28800
UDP
2300-2400, 47624
TCP
MSN Game Zone
2
6112 UDP 6112 UDP Battle.net
In the example above, when a user trigger’s port 28800 (outbound) for MSN Game Zone then the
router will allow incoming packets for ports 2300-2400 and 47624 to be directed to that user.
Note: Only one LAN client can use a particular special application at a time.
3.4.3 Port Forwarding
The Port Forwarding allows you to re-direct a particular range of service port numbers (from the
Internet/WAN Ports) to a particular LAN IP address. It helps you to host some servers behind the
router NAT firewall.
