In the default configuration only the Safe_ports are allowed.

acl Safe_ports port 80 81 82 21 443 563 70 210 8000 8080 8888 1025-65535
acl Safe_ports port 280 # http-mgmt
acl Safe_ports port 488 # gss-http
acl Safe_ports port 591 # filemaker
acl Safe_ports port 777 # multiling http

http_access deny !Safe_ports

Remove any you don't want.
