I would like some clarifications on the FTP troubleshooting page.

It states:
2. If you have a restrictive ruleset or are utilizing policy based
routing for multiple-wans then ensure that you have permitted traffic
to 127.0.0.1 / ports 8000-8030. IE: allow LAN subnet to 127.0.0.1
8000-8030. This rule should be on top of all other LAN rules that
utilize policy based routing.

What does this mean exactly?
Make a rule, select LAN Subnet as the source to destination 127.0.0.1
for ports 8000-8030?

Would this be created under the LAN tab?
What if my client also used ports 7950-8079 as well?
Would i edit the rule to allow all the ports instead?

do i need to make rules from the lan subnet for each IP address i need
to ftp to?

Also, do i need to do port forwarding for those ports as well?
We dont run an FTP server, we just need to FTP out.

thanks for the clarification
