Port alias & the protocol in the firewall rule

[AR15USR]

IF I need to create an alias that has ports like this example:

TCP 80, 443
TCP & UDP 15063
UDP 51504, 51506

Should I create 1 list and have my firewall rule use TCP/UDP as the protocol, or create 3 seperate rules, 1 each for TCP, UDP and TCP/UDP?

It's really up to you. If you create an alias with all that ports, and don't mind to open 80,443 UDP and 51504, 51506 TCP also, just put the rule with tcp/udp. If you want to be very specifc, you have to create all the rules, for TCP ports and for UDP ports as necessary
