Example of Special Applications:
If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, specify the port
(outbound) normally associated with that application in the "Trigger Port" field.
Then select the protocol type (TCP or UDP) and enter the public ports associated
with the trigger port to open them up for inbound traffic.
In the example above, when a user triggers port 28800 (outbound) for MSN
Game Zone, the router will allow incoming packets for ports 2300-2400 and
47624 to be directed to that user. Note: Only one LAN client can use a particular
special application at a time.
