Description

In AlmostVPN, please implement and integrate a GUI for port knocking. PK adds a simple but effective layer of security.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_knocking

I imagine the PK GUI to be able to use/add/edit/delete a list of port knocking "sequences." Each sequence has one title, one host name, and then an arbitrarily-long, ordered list of port numbers and protocols (TCP or UDP). So, a sequence might be:

Title: The office LAN Hostname: office.example.com #1: UDP 12898 #2: TCP 62181 #3: TCP 9999

You could also take the sequence as a string: 2222:udp,3333:tcp,4444:udp

OR with spaces intead of commas: 2222:udp 3333:tcp 4444:udp
