Some applications require multiple connections, such as Internet gaming, video conferencing, Internet telephony and others.
These applications have difficulties working through NAT (Network Address Translation). Special Applications makes some of these
applications work with the DIR-68. If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, specify the port normally
associated with an application in the "Trigger Port" field, select the protocol type as TCP or UDP, then enter the firewall (public) ports
associated with the trigger port to open them for inbound traffic.
The DIR-68 provides some predefined applications in the table on the bottom of the web page. Select the application you want to
use and enable it.
