Port Range Forwarding
The Port Forwarding screen sets up public services on your network, such as web servers, ftp servers,
When users send this type of request to your network via the Internet, the Gateway will forward those requests to the appropriate computer. Any computer whose port is being forwarded should have its DHCP client function disabled and should have a new static IP address assigned to it because its IP address may change when using the DHCP function.

Port Triggering
Port Triggering is used for special applications that can request a port to be opened on demand. For this feature, the Gateway will watch outgoing data for specific port numbers. The Gateway will remember the IP address of the computer that sends a transmission requesting data, so that when the requested data returns through the Gateway, the data is pulled back to the proper computer by way of IP address and port mapping rules.
•Application. Enter the name you wish to give each application.
•Start Port and End Port. Enter the starting and ending Outgoing Triggered Range numbers and the Incoming Forwarded Range numbers of the port you wish to forward.
