We have created some how-to videos to help you get started using PFConfig.

Please note: These videos were created with PFConfig version 2.0.1, which is now the old version. We are currently creating new versions with PFConfig 3.0.4 and will post them here as soon as they are ready. In the mean time these videos are still a great way to see how the process of forwarding a port works with PFConfig.
