Netgear WNDR3700V4 사용자 설명서

Port triggering does not require that you know the computer’s IP address in advance. The 
IP address is captured automatically.

Port forwarding requires that you specify the computer’s IP address during configuration, 
and the IP address can never change.

Port triggering requires specific outbound traffic to open the inbound ports, and the 
triggered ports are closed after a period of no activity.

Port forwarding is always active and does not need to be triggered.

Using the port forwarding feature, you can allow certain types of incoming traffic to reach 
servers on your local network. For example, you might want to make a local web server, FTP 
server, or game server visible and available to the Internet.

Use the Port Forwarding screen to configure the router to forward specific incoming protocols 
to computers on your local network. In addition to servers for specific applications, you can 
also specify a default DMZ server to which all other incoming protocols are forwarded.

Before starting, determine which type of service, application, or game you want to provide. 
Find out the local IP address of the computer that will provide the service. The server 
computer has to always have the same IP address.



To ensure that your server computer always has the same IP address, 
use the reserved IP address feature of your WNDR3700v4 router. 

Select Advanced Setup > Port Forwarding/Port Triggering to display the following 

screen:

In the corresponding Server IP Address field, enter the last digit of the IP address of your 

local computer that will provide this service. 

Click Add. The service appears in the list in the screen.
