Differences between port triggering and port forwarding:
Port triggering will work even without setting up a specific LAN IP address. Unlike
port forwarding, which requires a static LAN IP address, port triggering allows
dynamic port forwarding using the WiFi Router. Predetermined port ranges are
configured to accept incoming connections for a limited period of time. Port
triggering lets multiple computers run applications that would normally require
manually forwarding the same ports to each PC on the network.
Port triggering is more secure than port forwarding since the incoming ports are
not open all the time. They are opened only when an application is making an
outgoing connection through the triggering port.
2.4.1.1.6 DMZ
Virtual DMZ module exposes one client to the Internet, allowing this client to receive
all inbound packets directed to a Local Area Network. For IPv4, inbound traffic from
the Internet is usually discarded and routed to a specific client only if port forwarding
or a port trigger has been configured on the network. For IPv6, inbound traffic from
the Internet is usually discarded and routed to a specific client address or a prefix only
the ipv6 firewall have the rules to let them in. In a DMZ configuration, one network
client receives all inbound packets.
CAUTION: Opening all of the client’s ports to Internet makes the network
