Arun,

This command is basically for binding a particulat port ot a particulat protocol or a service.

ie, the command fixup protocol binds port 80 with http.

You can also bind a different port (for security reasons) for a particular protocol/service.

like fixup protocol http 21 would bind port 21 with http which is conventionally used for ftp.

Intresting!!
