Warning: This window includes settings that could negatively impact the performance of the CLEAR
Spot, if set incorrectly. It should be used only by advanced users or if directed by CLEAR Customer
Care.
Use this window to enable / disable Port Triggering.
 Port Triggering: Some applications require multiple ports be open for communication, many of
which may be initiated by a computer on the WAN. Examples include video conferencing, VoIP
(internet telephony) and internet gaming. With port triggering, the device monitors outgoing data
on specific port numbers (trigger ports). The device keeps track of the IP Address of the devices
that send data on these trigger ports, so when incoming traffic (on the forward ports) arrives, the
device sends the incoming data to the same device.
Note: The Advanced Settings Tab appears on every window of the CLEAR Spot Home Page.
