Note: Some applications, such as FTP , TFTP , PPTP , and H 323,
require the support of special specific Application Level Gateway
(
ALG ) modules to work inside the local network. Data packets
associated with these applications contain information that allows
them to be routed correctly. An
ALG is needed to handle these
packets and ensure they reach their intended destinations. The
Router is equipped with a robust list of
ALG modules, enabling
maximum functionality in the local network.
The ALG is automatically assigned based on the destination port.
