Applications and Gaming Tab / Port Range Triggering

This screen allows the device to watch outgoing data for specific port numbers. The IP address of the computer that sends the matching data is remembered by the device, so that when the requested data returns through the device, the data is sent back to the proper computer by way of IP address and port mapping rules. To trigger a port range, enter the information on each line for the criteria required.
