      Hello,
      We have a Software partner asking us to open up some ports so they can do a software upgrade.  We trust these people so that's not an issue - but I don't know how to open up ports…at home on my own stuff its just a few clicks here a few clicks there and you're good to go - but I can't find any info on pfSense how to do it...

      He will need the following ports opened:

      TCP 22

      TCP 80

      TCP 443

      TCP 995

      Thanks!

        First create port alias for all of those ports(Firewall:Aliases)
        Second create portforward to one pc with that alias. (Firewall:NAT:PortForward) dont define source ports

        EDIT: Determine source network

          Port forwarding is covered in the documentation.
