Editing and Deleting User-Added Services

There are options for editing or deleting the user added services. However, there are some standard

DNAT, it cannot be deleted.

For editing any user-defined service, the Edit button has to be clicked to get the fields corresponding
to the service entry.

By clicking Edit in the Options column, the information is loaded into the entry menu of
the Edit Service screen. You can then edit the entry. You can edit user-added services
only. The entries can be saved using the Save button.

Delete

By clicking Delete in the Options column, the service is deleted from the Services table.
Changes can be saved using the Save button.

Notes About Protocols

TCP & UDP allow both protocols to be active at the same time.

The ICMP protocol is necessary to test network connections and RouteFinder functionality, as
well as for diagnostic purposes. In the Packet Filter > ICMP menu you can enable ICMP
Forwarding
between networks, as well as RouteFinder ICMP reception (e.g., to allow ping
support).

The ESP protocol is required for Virtual Private Network (VPN).

The AH protocol is required for Virtual Private Network (VPN).

For AH and ESP, the SPI is a whole number between 256 and 65536, which has been mutually
agreed upon by the communication partners. Values below 256 are reserved by the Internet
Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA).
