Why Can't I Open A Port?

Why is it so difficult to add a port (open a port)?


I have an app which uses java calls and certain ports need to be open. I had this problem with BDTS 2013 and now with BDTS 2014.


For some reason you HAVE to add an application then select the protocol NOT PORT NUMBER!


When you ADD an application you CANNOT click the protocol AND port number, it either ANY, TCP, UPD or BLANK?? BLANK is NOT for adding a port number because if I insert a port number, it says it's an invalid port number!!!


Why is this so difficult???


Sorry for being so ###### off but this is crazy!!!


PLEASE HELP!
