Hover over "Quick Actions" and select "Port Punch"

.

• Fill in the requested information as seen below. Please change the following fields accordingly.

Note - You want to make sure you have a naming scheme when setting rules up. In this case, we use 'Port Punch - Game' we'd advise changing User to an identifier you'll remember for the future.

**Name - A descriptive name you'll want to use **

Server IP - Your NX Server *This will auto populate*

Port Punch - The port of the game you want to open *In this case we're using minecraft as an example, so 25565 by default*

**Port Punch Section - This will be the protocol you want to open. Usually we advise if you're not sure what protocol, create two rules. One TCP and one UDP rule. **
