Right, we combined several of these approaches after reading the threads
here. However, disallowing ports 80 and 443 essentially disallows PS2
online gaming - at least that is the claim and, so far, there is some
reason to believe that it is true - see
http://uk.playstation.com/networkgaming/story.jhtml?storyId=106348_en_GB_GUIDES
. We're thinking that we're going to have allow ports 80 and 443 for
our PS2 gaming role but we should not have to for Xbox unless they
change something for Xbox 360 release.
Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason (and others),
As we discovered some of these needs, we changed our direction for our
gaming role. Instead of thinking in terms of "allowed" ports, we
started
thinking in terms of "disallowed" ports. So, our role makes it
extremely
useless to register anything but a gaming device in that role. (no
smtp, no
imap/pop, no ssh, no port 80/443 to our central services, etc).
Hope this helps,
