Yes.  Find the default filter called,
"DEFAULT: Block/nolog stale WWW accesses."

Make a copy of this rule, and change Interface to
"PROTECTED", Destination Port  to 1900, protocol
to "UDP".  Make sure that this rule is ahead of
the "DEFAULT: Block with alarm any other access"
rule and Bob's your uncle.
