Network Address Translation (NAT) is enabled. If you need to run applications that
require multiple connections, specify the port normally associated with an application in
the "Trigger" field, then enter the public ports associated with the trigger port to open
them for inbound traffic. The range of the Trigger port is 1 to 65535.
