Forwarding ports

I'm having trouble finding place to edit port forwarding settings, and I'm having a feeling that the feature doesn't even exist. Obviously, blocking some ports can - and will - lead to some issues; and I'm already experiencing a bunch of them.

Anyone?

 

Hi,

I think you've got to create a rule for :

First panel :

Direction : Both
Action : Allow
Protocol : TCP&UDP (or only one of them, depending on the forwarding you want to set up)

-
Second panel ("local")

Local port : (the port you want to forward)
Application : (specify one if the forwarding is needed only for it, else leave blank)

-
Third panel ("remote")

Leave blank

And click OK to create the rule.
Obviously it will work only in advanced mode.

Hope it will help,

 

I assume the settings are under Zone and rule editor, but I can't access it somehow; the button is grayed out:

That's probably because you're using the firewall in automatic mode. Switch the firewall to interactive mode before you can edit rules.

 

Ahh, there we go. Thanks a bunch.

 

You're welcome, glad I could be of help

Interactive mode is nice. It is the first firewall that I can actually understand.
