Parameters

name
A string 1 - 32 characters in length specifying the name of this PortRange statement.

Rule: If this PortRange statement is not specified inline within another statement, a name value must be provided. If a name is not specified for an inline PortRange statement, a nonpersistent system name is created.

Port
A single port or range of ports.

Valid values for n are in the range 0 - 65 535. If 0 is specified for n, then any port can be used. If n is specified as the beginning value for a range, then 0 is not a valid value.

If an m value is specified, it must be greater than or equal to n and less than 65 536.

Rule: Include a blank, a colon (:), or a dash (-) as a delimiter.

Restrictions:
  • For IDSAttackCondition the only valid port values for n are 1 - 65 535.
  • PortRange is available for use only with IDS configuration and AT-TLS policies.
