Default Configuring LnS with Torrent Client Question

In short this is my question:

I have imported bit-torrent rule from LnS site. Then I configured the ports accordingly. LnS was still blocking connections. Eventually what worked was to change the protocol from "TCP" only as it is by default to: "TCP or UDP". My experience is limited in this area, if someone may clear up for me if this change is fine or if by doing this I may have exposed myself or disabled firewall function for what is meant to be.

Thanks in advance

Default Re: Configuring LnS with Torrent Client

Using simply the one rule for both TCP and UDP port or port range, this is ok.
