Some Internet activities, such as interactive gaming, require that a PC on the WAN side of your
gateway be able to originate connections during the game with your game playing PC on the LAN side.
You could use the Advanced-Forwarding web page to construct a forwarding rule during the game,
and then remove it afterwards (to restore full protection to your LAN PC) to facilitate this. Port
triggering is an elegant mechanism that does this work for you, each time you play the game.
