For special applications, besides the initial communication session, there are multiple related sessions created during the protocol communications. Normally, a normal treats the triggered sessions as independent sessions and blocks them. However, the Gateway can co-relate the triggered sessions with the initial session and group them together in the NAT session table. As a result, you need only specify which protocol type and port number you want to track, as well as some other related parameters. In this way, the Gateway can pass the special applications according to the supplied information. Assume, for example, that to use H.323 in a Net Meeting application, a local client starts a session A to a remote host. The remote host uses session A to communicate with the local host, but it also could initiate another session B back to the local host. Since there is only session A recorded in the NAT session table when the local host starts the communication, session B is treated as an illegal access from the outside and is blocked. Using the Special Application menu, you can configure the Gateway to co-relate sessions A and B and automatically open the port for the incoming session B. The maximum allowed triggers is 50. To enable the special application function, check the Enable Triggering checkbox and click Apply. To disable it, uncheck the Enable Triggering checkbox and click Apply. Note: The Special Application submenu is not available in the menu bar if Enable Firewall Module is disabled in the Security Settings (Firewall) menu (see page 57).

Trigger Menu Options Option Description Name Name for identifying the trigger. The name is for reference purposes only and should let you identify this trigger from others you may define.. Type The type of protocol you want to use with the trigger. For example, to track the H.323 protocol, the protocol type should be TCP. Choices are: • TCP (default) • UDP Port Number From and To port ranges of the special application. For example, to track the H.323 protocol, the From and To ports should be 1720. Target Port From and To port ranges for the target port listening for the special application. Interval Interval between 50 and 30000 between two continuous sessions. If the interval exceeds this time interval setting, the sessions are considered to be unrelated. IP Replacement Select the IP replacement according to the application. Some applications embed the source host's IP in the datagram that prevent NATs from translating the IP address in the datagram. To make sure the network address translation is complete, IP replacement is necessary for these special applications, such as H.323. Allow sessions initiated from/to the 3rd host Enable (check) or disable (uncheck) sessions to be initiated from or to a third host. To prevent hacker attacks from a third host, this feature usually is disabled (not checked). However, some special applications, such as MGCP in a VOIP application, permit a session initiated from a third host. For example, assume Client A is trying to make a phone call to host B. Client A tries to communicate with the Media Gateway Controller (MGC) first and provides host B's number to MGC. The MGC checks its own database to find B and communicates with B to provide B the information about A. B uses this information to communicate directly to A. So initially, A is talking to MGC, but the final step has B initiating a session to A. If the third-party host-initiated session is not allowed in this example, the whole communication fails.

This tool provides a supplemental role to the ping tool. While the ping tool confirms IP network reachability, you cannot pinpoint and improve some isolated problems. Consider the following situations: y When there are many hops (for example, gateways or routes) between the Gateway and the destination, and there is a problem somewhere along the path. The destination system may have a problem, but you need to know where a packet is actually lost. y The ping tools do not tell you the reasons for a lost packet. The trace route tool can tell you where the packet is located and why the route is lost. Using this tool, you can map a network path in real time from the Gateway to a local or public host.
