TCP and UDP protocols support varieties of services, and each service consists of a TCP Port or UDP

port number, such as TELNET (23), SMTP (21), SMTP (25), POP3 (110), etc. The RS-3000 includes

two services:

Pre-defined Service

and

Custom Service

The common-use services like TCP and UDP are defined in the Pre-defined Service and cannot be

modified or removed. In the custom menu, users can define other TCP port and UDP port numbers

that are not in the pre-defined menu according to their needs. When defining custom services, the client

port ranges from 1024 to 65535 and the server port ranges from 0 to 65535

In this chapter, network services are defined and new network services can be added. There are three

sub menus under Service which are: Pre-defined, Custom, and Group. The Administrator can simply

follow the instructions below to define the protocols and port numbers for network communication

applications. Users then can connect to servers and other computers through these available network

services.

How to use Service?

The Administrator can add new service group names in the Group option under Service menu, and

assign desired services into that new group. Using service group the Administrator can simplify the

processes of setting up control policies. For example, there are 10 different computers that want to

access 5 different services on a server, such as HTTP, FTP, SMTP, POP3, and TELNET. Without the

help of service groups, the Administrator needs to set up 50 (10x5) control policies, but by applying all 5

services to a single group name in the Service field, it takes only one control policy to achieve the same

effect as the 50 control policies.
