Multiple SSHD ports

Is there a way to configure the Dropbear SSHD server to listen on multiple ports?
I know Dropbear itself supports multiple instances, but the router Web UI does not seem to allow entering more than one port into the "SSH service port" field.

Can't be done through the webui, you would have to configure dropbear + firewall rules manually.
 
Thanks, Merlin!

Would using postconf scripts be the best way to handle this?
I was unable to find the configuration file for dropbear. Would I simply launch another instance listening on a different port?
For "manual" editing of firewall rules, do I use a script to modify filter_rules directly?

I don't know if dropbear can be configured to listen on multiple ports at once, you will have to look up its documentation.

There is no config file, all options are provided through the command line at this time.
