There are actually 65,536 TCP ports and 65,536 UDP ports (numbered 0 to 65,535).
However, when port 0 is designated, the server will actually use a random port between
1 and 65,535. In other words, only 65,535 ports are subject to attack. |

In the Remember block, the ports for PPTP and L2TP are reversed. It should read
L2TP uses port 1701 and PPTP uses port 1723. A way to remember this is that:

- 1701 is before 1723 numerically.
- L2TP uses 1701 and PPTP uses 1723.
