• Resolve the issue of Terraria not supporting game join via an ipv6 address

portbridge -s 127.0.0.1:7777 -d [::1]:7777 -p tcp

• Expose local TCP port 8080 to 8081 with a bandwidth limit of 1 MiB

portbridge -s :8081 -d 127.0.0.1:8080 -p tcp -b 1024

• Execute the above examples in rules_example.json(or rules_example.yaml, which in the release files)
