Popular applications

This section lists the more popular applications that require multiple connections. Select

 

an application from the Popular Applications selection. Once you have selected an

 

application, select a location (1-10) in the Copy to selection box and then click the Copy

 

to button. This will automatically list the Public Ports required for this popular

 

application in the location (1-10) you had specified.

Add Special Application

Fill in the "Trigger Port", "Trigger Type”, “Public Port”, "Public Type", and "Comment"

 

of the setting to be added and then click "Add". This Special Application setting will

 

then be added into the "Current Trigger-Port Table" below. If you find any errors before

 

adding it and want to retype it again, just click "Clear" and the fields will be cleared. If

 

you want to add a popular application, select one “Popular Application” and then click

 

“Add”.

Remove Special Application

If you want to remove some Special Application settings from the "Current Trigger-Port

 

Table", select the Special Application settings you want to remove in the table and then

 

click "Delete Selected". If you want to remove all Special Application settings from the

 

table, just click the "Delete All" button. Clicking "Reset" will clear your current

 

selections.

Click Apply at the bottom of the screen to save the above configurations. You can now configure other advanced sections or start using the router (with the advanced settings in place).

Example: Special Applications

If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, then specify the port (outbound) normally associated with that application in the "Trigger Port" field. Then select the protocol type (TCP or UDP) and enter the public ports associated with the trigger port to open them up for inbound traffic.

Example:

ID

Trigger Port

Trigger

Public Port

Public Type

Comment

Type

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1

28800

UDP

2300-2400, 47624

TCP

MSN Game Zone

 

 

 

 

 

 

2

6112

UDP

6112

UDP

Battle.net

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the example above, when a user triggers port 28800 (outbound) for MSN Game Zone then the router will allow incoming packets for ports 2300-2400 and 47624 to be directed to that user. Note: Only one LAN client can use a particular special application at a time.
