Special Applications

Some applications, such as Internet gaming, video conferencing, Internet telephony and others, require
multiple connections. These applications cannot work with Network Address Translation (NAT) enabled. If you
need to run applications that require multiple connections, use the following screen to specify the additional
public ports to be opened for each application.
Specify the public port number normally associated with an application in the Trigger Port field. Set the
protocol type to TCP or UDP, and then enter the ports that the application requires. The ports may be in the
format 7, 11, 57, or in a range, e.g., 72-96, or a combination of both, e.g., 7, 11, 57, 72-96.
Popular applications requiring multiple ports are listed in the Popular Applications field. From the drop-down list,
choose the application and then choose a row number to copy this data into.
Note: Choosing a row that already contains data will overwrite the current settings.
Example:
ID Trigger Trigger Port
1 6112 UDP
2 28800 TCP
For a full list of ports and the services that run on them, see www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers.
