OpenRMF^® Professional Approved Boundary Ports, Protocols and Services

The Approved Boundary Ports, Protocols and Services (PPS) area allows Administrators to create and edit approved boundary PPS records that can be used for System Packages. These approved boundary PPS records note which ports, protocols, and services are allowed to cross boundaries in general.

Creating and Editing Approved Boundary PPS Records

To create a new approved boundary PPS entry you click the Create button. You then enter a title, low port number, high port number (optional), protocol, and service name. You also can enter a description to ensure people reading this information understand what it represents.

Uploading Approved Boundary PPS Listing

You also can upload a list of approved boundary PPS to bulk add or bulk edit existing entries. You can click the Upload button and select a proper CSV, XLSX, or JSON file. There is sample data linked and listed below. This allows quick loading of approved boundary PPS entries to list at the top installation level for all to see.

Download a Sample XLSX as a starting point for uploading a spreadsheet or CSV file.

The JSON for the file upload or a JSON post with data in the body for the external API is shown below.
