Adding custom TCP and UDP services
Add a custom TCP or UDP service if you need to create a policy for a service that is
not in the predefined service list.
To add a custom TCP or UDP service
1 Go to Firewall > Service > Custom.
2 Select TCP/UDP from the Protocol list.
3 Select New.
4 Type a Name for the new custom TCP or UDP service. This name appears in the
service list used when you add a policy.
The name can contain numbers (0-9), uppercase and lowercase letters (A-Z, a-z), and
the special characters - and _. Other special characters and spaces are not allowed.
5 Select the Protocol (either TCP or UDP) used by the service.
6 Specify a Source and Destination Port number range for the service by entering the
low and high port numbers. If the service uses one port number, enter this number in
both the low and high fields.
7 If the service has more than one port range, select Add to specify additional protocols
and port ranges.
If there are too many port range rows, select Delete to remove each extra row.
8 Select OK to add the custom service.
You can now add this custom service to a policy.
