Opening Port
-
I am trying to open one port 8834 in the Pf-sense GUI. I'm actually confused as some materials call it port forwarding, NAT and other say open port. I just want to allow the same ip address in and out on a the specified port stated. Any quick and easy material to read that makes sense to a new netgate guy?

What IP? What device.
A port forward would be to a rfc1918 IP behind pfsense when pfsense is doing nat. Open port would just be a firewall rule if wanting to allow say internet to talk to pfsense wan IP on that port.
Or if your wanting a device on say pfsense lan, using rfc1918 to talk tot he internet on that port..
Happy to help - but need some details of what wanting to do exactly, and how your currently setup.
