Application Rules

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 DIR-615. 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 firewall (public) ports associated with the trigger port to open them for inbound traffic.

The DIR-615 provides some predefined applications in the table on the bottom of the web page. Select the application

you want to use and enable it.
