Port numbers for Triggering and Forwarding

Hi All,

Check this page for links to the router/modem you have:
http://www.portforward.com/routers.htm
Click on the name of the device and then the method of opening ports on the next page.

Use Port Triggering if you have several computers.
Use either if you have only one.

For Triggering you need to set up this table.
Trigger port 5678 to trigger ports 5678, 5060, 16384-16403
Trigger port 5190 to trigger port 5190

IF you have other Macs add these three entries.
Trigger port 5297 to trigger port 5297
Trigger Port 5298 to trigger port 5298
Trigger port 5353 to trigger port 5353

If this device needs to set protocols in the set up table all need UDP.

Ports 5190 and 5298 need TCP as well (might be a "Both" setting).

In Port Forwarding they need to as follows
Port 5190 to forward to port 5190 (UDP and TCP)
Port 5060 to forward to port 5060 (UDP)
port 5678 to forward to port 5678 (UDP)
Same for the three Rendezvous ports 5297(UDP), 5298 (UDP and TCP) and 5353 (UDP)
Ports 16384-16403 to forward to ports 16384-16403 (UDP)
This last group of 20 ports may be able to be entered in a group as shown but on some routers/modems need to be entered indvidually.
They also need to point to the IP address of your Computer
