  4. Next, go to the “Inbound” tab and click the Edit button.

  5. Then, scroll down to the bottom of the list of preconfigured Plesk firewall rules and click Add Rule.

  6. Specify the following settings for the newly added rule:

    • “Type”. Keep the “Custom TCP rule” value in the drop-down list.
