Port Forwarding and Port Triggering

Port forwarding and port triggering are advanced features that affect the behavior of the

firewall in your router. In the Port Forwarding / Port Triggering screen, you can make local

computers or servers available to the Internet for different services (for example, FTP or

HTTP), to play Internet games (like Quake III), or to use Internet applications (like

CU-SeeMe).

• Port forward

ng is designed for FTP, web server, or other server-based services. Once

port forwarding is set up, requests from the Internet are forwarded to the correct server.

• Port triggering monitors outb

ound traffic. When the router detects traffic on the specified

outbound port, it remembers the IP address of the computer that sent the data and

triggers the incoming port. Incoming traffic on the triggered port is then forwarded to the

triggering computer. Port triggering allows requests from the Internet only after a

designated port is triggered. Port triggering applies to chat and Internet games.
