4.3.2 Port Trigger

Port range triggering opens a predetermined incoming port for a

limited period of time whenever a client on the local area network

makes an outgoing connection to a specified port. Port triggering

is used in the following scenarios:

More than one local client needs port forwarding for the

same application at a different time.

An application requires specific incoming ports that are

different from the outgoing ports.

To set up Port Trigger:
1. From the navigation panel, go to Advanced Settings > WAN >

Port Trigger tab.

2. On Enable Port Trigger, choose Yes.
3. If the online task or application is on the Well-Known

Applications List, select it from the list.

4. On the Trigger Port List section, enter a description, the trigger

ports, and protocol. Click the Add

button.

5. Click Apply.
