2. From the Service Type drop-down list, select the application or service to be allowed or

blocked.

The list displays several common services, but you are not limited to these choices.

3. To add any additional services or applications that do not already appear, select User Defined.

See “Creating a User-Defined Service Type” on page 3-4.

4. You can use the Filter Services for settings to block the specified service for a single computer,

a range of computers (having consecutive IP addresses), or all computers on your network.

Creating a User-Defined Service Type

You will need to enter the protocol, starting point, and ending point for the service type.

• Protocol. If you know that the application uses either TCP or UDP, select the appropriate

protocol. If you are not sure, select TCP/UDP.

• Starting Point and Ending Point. Enter the starting port and ending port numbers. If the

application uses a single port number, enter that number in both boxes.

To define a service, you must determine which port number or range of numbers the

application uses. The service numbers for many common protocols are defined by the Internet

Engineering Task Force (IETF) and published in RFC1700, “Assigned Numbers.” Service

numbers for other applications are typically chosen from the range 1024 to 65535 by the

authors of the application. This information can usually be determined by contacting the

publisher of the application or from user groups or news groups.

• Filter Services For. You can block the specified service for a single computer, a range of

computers (having consecutive IP addresses), or all computers on your network.
