Filtering Profile Components > Service Ports:

Service ports are used when setting up filter segments on the network (the range of IP addresses/netmasks to be detected by the Web Filter), the global (default) filtering profile, and the minimum filtering level.

When setting up the range of IP addresses/netmasks to be detected, service ports can be set up to be open (ignored). When creating the global filtering profile and the minimum filtering level, service ports can be set up to be blocked or filtered.

Examples of service ports that can be set up include File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP), Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP), Secured HTTP Transmission (HTTPS), and Secure Shell (SSH).
