Abstract
A network device with a triggering element. In a first embodiment where a triggering element is embedded in a network socket, a user is allowed to trigger it to control a processor on the network device to set network parameters. In a second embodiment, the invention can trigger the triggering element to control the processor on the network device. In a third embodiment, the invention sends a triggering signal to the triggering element for controlling electronic elements other than the network device. Therefore, the invention can achieve the effects of network settings of the network device, processor controls, and convenience in controlling other electronic elements.
