firewall configuration at studio

Setting up a backup stream for AsiaStar at the Studio, implemented by PB using ices and icecast. Configuring the firewall to point to the right server at the right port took a while, because we did not remember that two rules are required - one for "allow" to the port, and one to SAT to the appropriate server. Not only are two rules required, the order is also important. The Allow has to come below the SAT rule.

"Right-click for more options" is shown in the firewall's web control panel. This works with IE when the site is added to Trusted Sites. Doesn't seem to work with firefox on linux. One of the "more options" is 'move up' for moving the rule up in the list.
