  • Page 42 QUARTZ-GOLD Software Manual IP Passthrough IP passthrough bridges all traffic on the external WAN interface to a single device attached to the routers LAN port. Therefore, this device connected to the LAN will be assigned the IP address that would otherwise have been used by the WAN and not an IP address from the routers DHCP server.
  • Page 43 QUARTZ-GOLD Software Manual Triggered Port trigger is a dynamic version of port forwarding. Outgoing traffic on a specific port will open an incoming port to the device on the LAN that originated the outgoing traffic. The rule only applies while there is outgoing traffic. Since the connection is not persistent and the connection dynamic, this is safer than port redirection.
