I don't know of a way to do that from the web interface. If there is
one, I'm sure someone on the list will point it out. That would be
preferable to customizing the existing iptables rules.

That being said, you can ssh into the ipcop as root, then use the normal
iptables command to list/modify the iptables rules. Be aware that they
won't persist after a reboot, though. When you get them as you like
them, permanent firewall rules can be added to the
/etc/rc.d/rc.firewall.local script.

HTH.
