Firewall Settings
The flow of incoming and outgoing traffic is controlled by the
configuration setting you make. These decisions are made in
accordance with a sound security policy that defines the kinds of
risks that are acceptable to you or your firm.

combination of protocol and port numbers associated with a
specific application or communication type.
