Advanced > Applications

Some applications require multiple connections, such as Internet gaming, video

conferencing, Internet telephony and others. These applications have difficulties working

through NAT (Network Address Translation). Special Applications makes some of these

applications work with the DI-524. If you need to run applications that require multiple

connections, specify the port normally associated with an application in the “Trigger Port”

field, select the protocol type as TCP or UDP, then enter the public ports associated

with the trigger port to open them for inbound traffic.
The DI-524 provides some predefined applications in the table on the bottom of the

web page. Select the application you want to use and enable it.
