FAQ’s
Is it hard to port forward for VATP?

Why do applications need ports?
Porting an application to a different OS allows the program to run on various types of machines. The machine-dependent sections of code must be rewritten to be compatible with other systems.
Does every application have a port number?
When using an IP network, every device has a unique IP address. In the same way, every instance of an application protocol also has a corresponding port number that is used to identify it on the local system.
