Netgear C3700 – N600 WiFi Cable Modem Router Manual Do Utilizador

Noting your port triggering rule and observing the destination port number of 6667, your 

modem router creates another session entry to send any incoming port 113 traffic to your 

computer.

The IRC server sends a return message to your modem router using the NAT-assigned 

source port (for example, port 33333) as the destination port. The IRC server also sends an 

“identify” message to your modem router with destination port 113.

When your modem router receives the incoming message to destination port 33333, it 

checks its session table to see if a session is active for port number 33333. Finding an active 

session, the modem router restores the original address information replaced by NAT and 

sends this reply message to your computer.

When your modem router receives the incoming message to destination port 113, it checks 

its session table and finds an active session for port 113 associated with your computer. The 

modem router replaces the message’s destination IP address with your computer’s IP 

address and forwards the message to your computer.

When you finish your chat session, your modem router eventually senses a period of 

inactivity in the communications. The modem router then removes the session information 

from its session table, and incoming traffic is no longer accepted on port numbers 33333 or 

113.
