Note:
• You can add multiple port triggering rules as needed.
• The triggering ports can not be overlapped.
• If the application you need is not listed in the Common Services list, please enter the parameters manually. You should verify
the external ports the application uses first and enter them in External Ports field. You can input at most 5 groups of ports
(or port sections). Every group of ports must be set apart with “,”. For example, 2000-2038, 2050-2051, 2085, 3010-3030.
4. 4. 3. UPnP
The UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol allows the applications or host devices
to automatically find the front-end NAT device and send request to it to open the
corresponding ports. With UPnP enabled, the applications or host devices on the local
network and the internet can freely communicate with each other realizing the seamless
connection of the network. You may need to enable the UPnP if you want to use applications
for multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer connections, real-time communication (such as VoIP
or telephone conference) or remote assistance, etc.
Tips:
• UPnP is enabled by default in this router.
• Only the application supporting UPnP protocol can use this feature.
• UPnP feature needs the support of operating system (e.g. Windows Vista/ Windows 7/ Windows 8, etc. Some of operating
system need to install the UPnP components).
For example, when you connect your Xbox to the router which is connected to the internet
to play online games, UPnP will send request to the router to open the corresponding ports
allowing the following data penetrating the NAT to transmit. Therefore, you can play Xbox
online games without a hitch.
