If you think you'll need to block sites with data that doesn't work for your location, etc... having this port open, and your UI configured to connect to the public IP of your gateway node, is a good idea, so you can use your UI to make those types of changes directly. +-Port ''12391'' (optional) - port 12391 is the **Qortal API port** - this port is used for DIRECT connection by the OWNER (you) of the node, with the direct public IP address (not the DNS through cloudflare, that will NOT work as described below...) for configuration of the blocked websites and so forth.
