TRENDnet User's Guide Special Applications Advanced > Firewall > Special Applications Application rules (also called port triggering) is typically used for online gaming applications or communication applications that require a range of ports or several ports to be dynamically opened on request to a device on your network. The router will wait for a request on a specific port or range of ports (or trigger port/port range) from a device on your network and once a request is detected by your router, the router will forward a single port or multiple ports (or incoming port/port range) to the device on your network. This feature is not typically used as most devices and routers currently use UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) to automatically configure your router to allow access for applications. See "Enable/disable UPnP on your router" on page 33. Note: Please refer to the device documentation to determine if your device supports UPnP first, before configuring this feature. 1. Log into your router management page (see "Access your router management page" on page 9). 2. Click on Advanced and click on Firewall, then click on Special Applications. 3.
