The "external ports, device state" page shows you all the internal to external port mappings which are currently specified for the device group. You can also click the "Add/Remove Ports" button for a particular child device, to open a sub-page that allows you to add and remove particular port mappings for the child device.

In a child device sub-page, each checkbox turns a particular port mapping on or off. If a checkbox is grayed out, it is because the device has an existing external connection, thus requiring the port to be mapped for the device group.
