Pre configured Rules

running on top of the TCP/IP suite of protocols, the
foundation protocols for the Internet. The HTTP protocol uses
TCP port 80.

TELNET - TELNET is the terminal emulation protocol of
TCP/IP. TELNET uses TCP to achieve a virtual connection
between server and client, then negotiates options on both
sides of the connection. TELNET uses TCP port 23.

FTP - File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is an application protocol
using the Internet's TCP/IP protocols. FTP provides an
efficient way to exchange files between computers on the
Internet. FTP uses TCP port 21.

SMTP - Simple Mail Transfer Protocol is a TCP/IP protocol for
sending and receiving email. Due to its limited ability to
queue messages at the receiving end, SMTP is often used
with POP3 or IMAP. SMTP sends the email, and POP3 or IMAP
receives the email. SMTP uses TCP port 25.

POP - Post Office Protocol is a TCP/IP protocol intended to
permit a workstation to dynamically access a maildrop on a
server host. A workstation uses POP3 to retrieve email that
the server is holding for it.
