Some applications require multiple connections, such as Internet gaming, video conferencing, Internet telephony, and others. These applications have difficulties working through NAT (Network Address Translation). Special Applications makes some of these applications work with the DI-824VUP. 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 into the Incoming Ports field.

At the bottom of the screen, there are already defined special applications. To use them, select them from the list by clicking a check mark next to the application name. Users may configure the special applications by clicking the Edit icon next to the application. If the mechanism of Special Applications fails to make an application work, try using DMZ host instead.
