You can use the same number for both

Ok so I don’t have to use the source range 1:65535 ? And would there be any benefit to prioritizing the ps4 ports as well
- Netduma-FraserFeb 19, 2019NetDuma PartnerDumaOS Classified Games prioritizes the console automatically so there should be no need to manually add ports for any game on a console. No you don't have to, it defaults to that range to prevent people making misconfigurations. Yes there would be benefit as long as you don't prioritize downloads.

ok and this is a odd question but what if i prioritize ports 1-65535 TCP/UDP will it automatically prioritize the ports that are open on that ip aka my ps4 ?
- Netduma-FraserFeb 20, 2019NetDuma PartnerYes it would but it would also prioritize your downloads on the console which is not advised. The feature is meant for low bandwidth applications and it would cause other devices to lag/buffer.
