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.
