> How to find which ports are Firewalled?

The simple answer - you cannot.

The next simple answer - you could try opening the ports and see which ones
fail.  You would have to filter out the errors that specify the port is
already in use.

The long answer - what you ask for is dependant on the particular filrewall
you are using.  Some provide an API for accessing the firewall, and some do
not.  For those that do, you would have to see what is actually available in
the API in regards to querying the firewall's is configuration.
