Miserable Ooma setup ... Did Ooma support open up my router just now?

A few hours into setting up the Ooma with tier 2 customer support (866-493-662), they had me open up my Linksys WRT54G router to the following settings.

Can someone (Jeff?) tell me what the heck this is doing from the standpoint of security?
