resources group port-group <group-name>

Defines a group of ports that are referenced in firewall rules.

set resources group port-group port-group-name { description description { port [ name | 1-65535 | start - end ] }
delete resources group port-group port-group-name { description description | port [ name | 1-65535 | start - end ] }
show resources group port-group port-group-name { description description | port name | 1-65535 | start - end test ] }
port-group port-group-name
Matches the destination port packets against the specified port group. The packet is considered a match if it matches any port name or number specified in the group. Only one port group may be specified. The port group must already be defined. A packet is considered a match for an address, a network, or a port group if it matches any host IP address, network address, or port name or number, respectively, in the group. However, if more than one group is specified, the packet must be a match for both groups in order to be considered a match. For example, if an address group and a port group are both specified, the packet’s destination must match at least one item in the address group and at least one item in the port group.
