Branch offices with strict egress policies need stable outbound rules toward main locations. Documents pinning --wireguard-port per peer plus a static DNAT at the main site, with the no-inbound trade-off stated and scoped, and cross-links from Incoming ports and the relayed- connections troubleshooting note.

What
Adds a "Static peer ports for site-to-site firewall rules" section to Ports & Firewalls, answering a recurring customer question: branch offices with strict egress policies need firewall rules toward main locations that stay valid, but the remote port shown in the ICE candidate endpoints is a dynamic NAT mapping and can be reassigned.
How
The section explains why the observed remote port must not be used in firewall rules, then gives an outbound-first recipe:
netbird up --wireguard-port), allocated from a range sized up front.A scoping note keeps the pattern narrow: controlled sites only, not for roaming devices, and not a general fix for relayed connections.
