#5 Adding rule for a range of ports

[Ronald]

How would I configure my firewall if I need to open a port range
example 1234 - 5678 ? I tried using tcp connection and put 1234-5678
but when I did an apply, it did not work.

Am using Turtle 1.25

Thanks

A possible workaround would be to define your own service
in the fwuserdefservices.xml file. Something like:

<service name="myservice" description="Open TCP ports
1234 - 5678">
<filter direction="go" p="tcp" dport="1234:5678" />
<filter direction="back" p="tcp" sport="1234:5678" />
</service>

Thanks bambi2000 for that submissions. But I was wondering
if that script could be cleaned up a little bit. I am new
to Turtle and am a little confused as to the correct
syntax that is needed there.

Ok, let's see if this looks messed up like my original post:

<service name="myservice" description="Open TCP ports
1234-5678">
<filter direction="go" p="tcp" dport="1234:5678" />
<filter direction="back" p="tcp" sport="1234:5678" />
</service>

That looks a bunch better! Thanks for your help.
