The following example is taken to show how to configure a port trigger if the  to the LAN interface of the VDR824/824g, and you want have an audio/video chat with Internet users, and to apply m sharing.  connection is established, NetMeeting needs to re-enable the TCP 1503 port to use whiteboard and program sharing. NetMeeting also needs to enable any port of TCP and UDP protocols within the range of 1024 to 65535 to transmit audio and video signals. After the firewall is enabled, you can configure the port filtering policies and virtual servers of TCP and UDP protocols to all ports within the range. In this way, Internet users can actively call a LAN user during the use of NetMeeting. However, possible omission in configuring the filtering policy and virtual server may cause the failure of the audio/video chat establishment. Moreover, the virtual server configuration exposes almost all the LAN host ports to the Internet, resulting in the insecurity of the host. To solve these problems, you can perform the configuration as below to make the TCP 1720 port trigger TCP/UDP port within the range of 1024 to 65535.

A subnet number is a number of bits borrowed from the host portion of IP address.  For example, to divide a Class C address 192.168.1.1 into two subnets, you need to set the subnet mask as follows: 255.255.255.128 It is much more straightforward to define the address in binary notation. 11111111. 11111111. 11111111.10000000 For any Class C address, all the bits in the filed 1 through field 3 are part of the network ID, but note how the mask specifies that the first bit in field 4 is also included. Since this extra bit has only two values (0 and 1), this means there are two subnets. Each subnet uses the remaining 7 bits in field 4 for its host IDs, which range from 1 to 126 hosts (instead of the usual 0 to 255 for a Class C address). Similarly, to divide a class C network into four subnets, set the mask as follows: 255.255.255.192 or 11111111. 11111111. 11111111.11000000 The two extra bits in field4 can have four values (00, 01, 10, and 11), so there are four subnets. Each subnet uses the remaining six bits in field 4 for its host IDs, ranging from 1 to 62.
