This is my idea and is inspired by this simular to this the link however witha few major differances, #1 ports could be compared to the applaction so Astaro could beter lable unknow services and apps . (example...say Battlefield3 it has a huge list of required ports needed to play.) so here is what i have in mind basicly under Applaction controle it would have a place to define a new applaction once pressed a new wizard would pop up and you could list needed ports, once you are finished the wizard creates the needed firewall rules for the applaction if you chose to do so and it collect the inputed data and fowards the ports applaction name and logs pretaning to this app and send them to astaro and they could be added to a data base and every app that is included in the data base is cross referanced by port so duplact rules could be kept to a minium, #2 astario could then take this data and create applaction profiles for updates. #3 this one requires a example say app a used port 223 and 555 and app b used port 223 and 6556 since a rule alowing port 223 already exists it only needs to add port 6556 this way when you look at a service group for say app b it will list port 6556 and a coment stating port 223 already has a rule or creat a ghose entrey in the group .. somthing of this nature ( but under the services port 223 only is listed once not 2x) #4 when you creat a group for a app you can chose to hide all individual ports for that groupd so only the group shows up under services (oh god please! it gets confusing to look at 100 differnt port entreys) #5 manual inport and export. I know this was long but thanks for reading. if you like this feel free to vote for it (yes i know my spelling bad sorry) post to my feature request Link I would like to get your input on this so lets talk a bought it
