Port Forwarding for Torrents

Hello, I know this use case is the exact opposite of what is typical for a firewall (and rightfully so) so I am having a hard time finding useful information on the topic. I know that uPnP is not supported and lots of consumer services need regular port forwarding set up. I have set up port forwarding for a game server successfully, but I am having issues getting it to work with torrents and other p2p traffic. Is there a blanket setting that I could use to enable it on specified ports or is there a better solution?

Hi

As per my knowledge torrent client doesn't need to listen to external connections.
