Port Triggering Setup - EnGenius ESR350 User Manual

Port Triggering Setup

Some applications, such as online games, videoconferencing and VoIP telephony, require multiple ports for inbound and outbound
traffic. If an application requires simultaneous use of incoming and an outgoing ports, configure port triggering to map a local port or
range of ports to a specific public port. Sending packets out over the local port triggers the router to open an incoming local port that
is mapped to the same public port and application as the outgoing local port(s). The local application can communicate over the
incoming and outgoing ports without the need for creating a fixed address.
