I am in the process of setting up the 'virtual server' section of my DSL-router. Its asks for the following info: <br />

The ports that I need open are web (80), mail (25,110) , SSL (443), SAMBA (137.138.139.445).<br />

My question is do all of the ports have to be opened as both TCP and UDP to function.<br />
For example for the web:<br />

TCP and UDP

I am in the process of setting up the &#39;virtual server&#39; section of my DSL-router. Its asks for the following info: 
Public Port         	Private Port           	Port Type- UDP/TCP    	Host IP Address

The ports that I need open are web (80), mail (25,110) , SSL (443), SAMBA (137.138.139.445).

My question is do all of the ports have to be opened as both TCP and UDP to function.
For example for the web:
Public Port         	Private Port           	Port Type- UDP/TCP    	Host IP Address
80                         80                         TCP                             192.168.0.129

Software firewalls, also known as host-based firewalls, provide a layer of software on one host that controls network traffic in and out of that single machine. Most operating systems now include firewall software, but many available software firewalls include central distribution, antivirus systems and disaster recovery.
