How to get an extra port on your game server ?

What is the purpose of an additional port? 

Generally, an extra port is needed when a service external to the main game needs to communicate with the outside.

For example if a plugin needs a web interface (dymap, plan, gmod store, ...), or if a Rcon needs to communicate with the outside.

You will then have to choose the server concerned by the port request using the reactions below the message.

Etape 3 : Validation

Once this is processed, if it is accepted, you will receive a return by PM with your new port.

You can then find your port in "Configuration > Ports" and use it for your server.

Pourquoi my application denied?

A request for an additional port may be denied for several reasons:

• An invalid or incomplete reason
• An insecure plugin that may cause security problems
• Too many ports requested
• Other internal reason
