SP2 Firewall Exceptions
Hi, everyone:
Does anyone know of a way to get Windows Firewall to allow access on all ports to a specified IP address or subnet? I ask because I can allow specific ports, but wildcards like "*" don't seem to work. Ideally, this would be done through group policy, but any means necessary would be a good start. Any thoughts out there? -- Steve Athanas Systems Analyst / Administrator UMass Lowell Student Affairs Cumnock Hall 1 University Ave. Lowell, MA 01854 |

The ipsec bypass feature can be used for this purpose. It relies on the
authentication of the other peer using ipsec, then consults the Active Directory against a group policy defined set of allowed computers which can access all ports. This is really only going to be available in a corporate environment. -- David Microsoft Windows Networking This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
