How do I host a server if...

How do I host a server if I am NOT behind a router or a firewall. In the "Ace of Spades Wiki: Server Hosting" it says:
"Step 1 If you are behind a firewall or router, you have to forward port 32887 (UDP) to your computer."
But I am NOT behind a router/firewall. So how do I host a server then?

I would imagine you could just run the Server.exe straight off the bat , since all the port forwarding stuff is only to allow AoS through your firewall and router.

That being said, if you value the PC you're on, you really should have a router and/or firewall, and advertising to the world that you're not protected might only serve to make you a target.
