Gateway > PORT TRIGGERS — predefined Page

When you run a PC application that accesses the Internet, it communicates with a computer on the Internet. In
some applications, especially gaming, the computer on the Internet also communicates with your PC. Because
NAT does not normally allow these incoming connections, the SBG940 supports port triggering.

The SBG940 is preconfigured with port triggering for common applications. You can also configure additional port
triggers if needed. Configuring port triggers for an application requires:

The application transport protocol — TCP or UDP

The application port number

You can use the default values for the remaining parameters.

LAN IP Address

Sets the private LAN IP address for the port forwarding page. An Internet user must know
the public IP address to access any port forwarding entry you define on the private LAN.

Enable

Select this box to enable the port forwarding entries to be accessed through NAT.

Add

Click to add the virtual server to the PORT FORWARDING list.

PORT FORWARDING
