Application Rules - D-Link DIR-615 User Manual

Section 3 - Coniguration
Some applications, such as Internet gaming, video conferencing, and Internet telephony require multiple connections. These
applications have difficulties working through NAT (Network Address Translation). Application rules allow some of these
applications to work with the DIR-615. 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.
Name:
Enter a name for the rule. You may select a pre-defined application from
the drop-down menu and click <<.
Trigger:
This is the port used to trigger the application. It can be either a single
port or a range of ports. Separate ports with a comma, and specify a
range with a dash. Example: 24,1009,3000-4000
Traffic Type:
Select the protocol of the trigger port (TCP, UDP, or Both).
Firewall:
This is the port number on the Internet side that will be used to access
the application. You may define a single port or a range of ports.
Separate ports with a comma, and specify a range with a dash. Example:
24,1009,3000-4000
Traffic Type:
Select the protocol of the firewall port (TCP, UDP, or Any).
Schedule:
The schedule of time when the application rule will be enabled. The
schedule may be set to Always, which will allow the particular service
to always be enabled. You can create your own schedules in the Tools
> Schedules section.
