1. Enable the protocols using Abiquo configuration properties 
   By default the following protocols are enabled: FTP, SMB, ORACLE_TMS, MS_RPC_TCP, SUN_RPC_TCP

   Code Block
   # Allowed firewall protocols to use services applications (aka ALG (Application Level Gateway)) # Collections separated using # delimiter abiquo.nsx.firewall.applicationprotocols = FTP#SMB#ORACLE_TNS#MS_RPC_TCP#SUN_RPC_TCP

   To add more protocols, edit the abiquo.properties file on the Abiquo server and add the appropriate protocol names (see #Listing application protocols)

2. In Abiquo 4.7.x, specify the protocol mappings in the UI. To do this, edit the client-config-custom.json (for more information, see Configure Abiquo UI). 

   NoteAlways  Always set a "port" value of "0" for application services. Any other value will cause a validation error in the plugin
   

   For example, to add the default Applications in the UI, add the following lines at the top of configure protocols (above "Own TCP rule"):

   Code Block
   "config.protocols" : [ {"value":"NSX - FTP", "protocol":"FTP", "port":0 }, {"value":"NSX - SMB", "protocol":"SMB", "port":0 }, {"value":"NSX - ORACLE_TNS", "protocol":"ORACLE_TNS", "port":0 }, {"value":"NSX - MS_RPC_TCP", "protocol":"MS_RPC_TCP", "port":0 }, {"value":"NSX - SUN_RPC_TCP", "protocol":"SUN_RPC_TCP", "port":0 }, {"value":"Own TCP rule", ....

   
   

3. When users create a firewall rule, they can now select the service. 

   NoteUsers  Users can set a "Port range" value of "0" only for application services. Any other value will cause a validation error in the plugin
