Hello all,

I just installed whitebox a few days ago, and I'd like
to get it running as a nat/router for my network.
Here's my question, when looking at
/etc/sysconfig/iptables it lists:
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p 50 -j ACCEPT
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p 51 -j ACCEPT
Why are these ports open by default and what will I
lose if I killed those rules? 

Eric
