Otherwise there will be a conflict to disable the virtual server. 4.11.2 Port Triggering Choose menu "Forwarding → Port Triggering", you can view and add port triggering in the next screen (shown in Figure 4-38). Some applications require multiple connections, like Internet games, video conferencing, Internet telephoning and so on. Port Triggering is used for some of these applications that cannot work with a pure NAT Router. Figure 4-38 Port Triggering Once the router is configured, the operation is as follows: 1. A local host makes an outgoing connection using a destination port number defined in the Trigger Port field. 2. The router records this connection, opens the incoming port or ports associated with this entry in the Port Triggering table, and associates them with the local host. 3. When necessary the external host will be able to connect to the local host using one of the ports defined in the Incoming Ports field.  Trigger Port - The port for outgoing traffic. An outgoing connection using this port will "Trigger" this rule.  Trigger Protocol - The protocol used for Trigger Ports, either TCP, UDP, or All (all protocols supported by the router).  Incoming Port - The port or port range used by the remote system when it responds to the outgoing request. A response using one of these ports will be forwarded to the PC that triggered this rule. You can input at most 5 groups of ports (or port section). Every group of ports must be set apart with ",". For example, 2000-2038, 2050-2051, 2085, 3010-3030.  Incoming Protocol - The protocol used for Incoming Ports Range, either TCP or UDP, or ALL (all protocols supported by the router).  Status - The status of this entry is either Enabled or Disabled. -48-

Port Triggering
Once the router is configured, the operation is as follows:
1.
A local host makes an outgoing connection using a destination port number defined in the
Trigger Port field.
2.
The router records this connection, opens the incoming port or ports associated with this
entry in the Port Triggering table, and associates them with the local host.
3.
When necessary the external host will be able to connect to the local host using one of the
ports defined in the
Incoming Ports
field.
Trigger Port -
The port for outgoing traffic. An outgoing connection using this port will
"Trigger" this rule.
Trigger Protocol -
The protocol used for Trigger Ports, either
TCP
,
UDP
, or
All
(all
protocols supported by the router).
Incoming Port -
The port or port range used by the remote system when it responds to the
outgoing request. A response using one of these ports will be forwarded to the PC that
triggered this rule. You can input at most 5 groups of ports (or port section). Every group of
ports must be set apart with ",". For example, 2000-2038, 2050-2051, 2085, 3010-3030.
Incoming Protocol -
The protocol used for Incoming Ports Range, either
TCP
or
UDP,
or
ALL
(all protocols supported by the router).
Status -
The status of this entry is either
Enabled
or
Disabled
.
