Click <Apply> at the bottom of the screen to save the above configurations. You can now configure other advance
sections or start using the router (with the advance settings in place)
Example: Special Applications
If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, specify the port (outbound) normally associated with
that application in the "Trigger Port" field. Then select the protocol type (TCP or UDP) and enter the public ports
associated with the trigger port to open them up for inbound traffic.
Example:
Trigger Trigger Public
ID
Port Type Port
2300-2400,
1 28800 UDP
47624
2 6112 UDP 6112
In the example above, when a user trigger's port 28800 (outbound) for MSN Game Zone then the router will allow
incoming packets for ports 2300-2400 and 47624 to be directed to that user. Note: Only one LAN client can use a
particular special application at a time.
Enable the Special Application function.
This is the out going (Outbound) range of port numbers for this particular application
Select whether the outbound port protocol is "TCP", "UDP" or both.
Enter the In-coming (Inbound) port or port range for this type of application (e.g. 2300-
2400, 47624)
Note: Individual port numbers are separated by a comma (e.g. 47624, 5775, and 6541
etc.). To input a port range use a "dash" to separate the two port number range (e.g.
2300-2400)
Select the Inbound port protocol type: "TCP", "UDP" or both
