Click the Add to enter the port trigger information to the list. Click the Delete button to remove a port trigger entry from the list. 6. When done, click Apply. NOTES: • When connecting to an IRC server, a client PC makes an outgoing connection using the trigger port range 1~65535. The IRC server responds by verifying the username and creating a new connection to the client PC using an incoming port. • If Port Trigger is disabled, the router drops the connection because it is unable to determine which PC is requesting for IRC access. When Port Trigger is enabled, the router assigns an incoming port to receive the inbound data. This incoming port closes once a specific time period has elapsed because the router is unsure when the application has been terminated. • Port triggering only allows one client in the network to use a particular service and a specific incoming port at the same time. • You cannot use the same application to trigger a port in more than one PC at the same time. The router will only forward the port back to the last computer to send the router a request/trigger. 64
