This is a bad choice for a port IMHO.  Frankly every firewall I set up
(and have seen up close) blocks tcp/udp 1-19.  Those services have no
purpose on the Internet at large IMHO.  They are plagued with security
issues and under-maintained source projects.

I wonder if Razor will fail if tcp/7 is blocked.  The box I'm testing SA
on (with Razor) isn't yet behind a firewall.
