Port Filtering can be enabled to block ports specified or allow ports specified.
When enabled, all ports not matching the rule will be allowed or blocked
depending on the mode.
Port Filtering can be configured on individual ports or for a port range. Click Add
More for each port filtering rule you want to add.
