single port, or a range of ports. If only a single
port is used, enter the same port number in both
the starting and ending port number fields.
Trigger Type
This is the protocol (TCP or UDP) that the
application uses to make the connection.
Max Activity Interval
This is the maximum interval, in milliseconds,
between the triggering of a protocol session and
the protocol’s dynamic session.
Session Chained
If the application allows a dynamic session
(connections) to trigger a new session, set this to
Enabled
. If an application uses protocols in
addition to the TCP/UDP protocols (like many
interactive Internet games), then this application
will likely create additional sessions (using these
additional protocols) that will need to associate
with the first session. Again,
Session Chained
should be set to
Enabled
, for this type of
application,
Address Replacement
This option is used in Network Address
Translation (NAT) to translate a binary IP
address in a TCP/UDP packet. When a TCP or
UDP packet is received by the DFL-600, the IP
address in this packet will be translated between
the WAN and LAN side of the DFL-600, if this
option is enabled.
Replacement Format
This drop-down menu allows you to specify
either the TCP or UDP protocol for the
Address
Replacement
function above.
Allow sessions
initiated from/to 3
rd
host
Click this check box if your application allows a
new session to be started with a different
computer than the one that started the first
session. For example, MSN file transfer requires
a connection with a remote host, but this
connection is not direct. There are other MSN
servers between your PC and the MSN file
server.
