Firewall question

Yes, the page you linked is the very first page I have consulted, but still I'm fairly confused (actually, I have seen better documentation).

It seems that If I open the listening port (as configured in Resilio setting) or I don't open it, nothing really changes. Files keep on synchronizing normally.

Any idea why?

Well technically you are wrong. There is always a router involved even though you don't see it. In your initial statement you didn't specifiy which ports your server has access to.

How can you be sure that all other ports are closed for this server? I'd love to see a tcp dump on the external interface filtering on the host ip of the other client that is syncing to that server. I don't really think you know that only port 80 and 443 are accessible.
