Port Triggering
Port triggering allows the router to watch outgoing data for a specific port number. The IP address of the computer that sends the data is remembered by the router, so
that when the requested data returns through the router, the data will be passed to the specific computer by way of IP address and port mapping rules. The router
opens the port when the Port Triggering happens. When the computer running the application stops sending the data through this port, the router will close the port.
