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.
