Configuring the Barricade Router

Special Applications

Some applications, such as Internet gaming, videoconferencing, Internet telephony and others, require multiple connections. These applications cannot work with Network Address Translation (NAT) enabled. If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, use the following screen to specify the additional public ports to be opened for each application.

Specify the public port number normally associated with an application in the Trigger Port field. Set the protocol type to TCP or UDP, then enter the ports that the application requires. The ports may be in the format 7, 11, 57, or in a range, e.g., 72-96, or a combination of both, e.g., 7, 11, 57, 72-96.

Popular applications requiring multiple ports are listed in the Popular Applications field. From the drop-down list, choose the application and then choose a row number to copy this data into.

Note: Choosing a row that already contains data will overwrite the current settings.
