IDS exception rule works like a charm. Thank you ITman.

Nice find, and people were calling me crazy...

Thanks Itman. I will let you know the results of my testing of the IDS rule you recommended. Preliminary test are favorable.

12.1.34.0 update is available. go to Update-> Click "Check for updates" (lower right) Issue still exists..

Once again

Read the prior posts and reply with proper guidance Marcos and maybe I will.

Nice... I likey, I will test and report back tomorrow.

Installed a new cable modem/router, no difference. It is likely ESET or Microsoft or both. Time for ESET to start collaborating and fix the issue with Network Attack Protection (IDS) and IPv6...

Anything yet?

Thanks Itman. I appreciate your troubleshooting help. I think your initial thoughts that the router is bad may have some merit. I think the firmware on my modem/router maybe outdated and not correctly passing and/or sharing IPv6 addresses correctly confusing ESET and blocking the communications. I am working with my internet provider to check the firmware and possibly replace the modem to remove that piece of the puzzle. I have built my internal routing table to address intrAnet communications so PC to PC communication is now working. Thanks again.

Please note.

Once again.

again, how is this done? What is the log file name? Your instructions do not properly allow me to generate what you are looking for. Please provide better instructions on how to provide the log files you are looking for.

I got it, I am seeing the same additional log entries.

Can you share steps to accomplish this?

I did do this and I still was required to disable IDS. Log entries decreased, but occasionally still happened.

Thank you for the info. - A point of clarification, I tried disabling the firewall and the ESET Network Protection errors still occur. I am also required to disable the IDS to allow access to my hosting machine for an internal app which I still have not received an answer to why that is happening.

I reinstalled, and still have the same issue.

The update from support was to reinstall ESET. I have 6 PCs that are exhibiting this behavior, sounds a little silly to reinstall. I need guidance on what disabling the IDS affects and what is my risk if I leave it disabled. Doing this solves my issues other than Incorrect "Ethernet packet errors" on all machines.

What is the name of the file, there are many generated in the diagnostics folder.

I have an SR open, do you prefer I place the log file there? What is the name of the file, there are many generated in the diagnostics folder.

Disabling Network Attack Protections (IDS) on the PC being accessed has addressed the issue of accessing the fileshare quickly and allowing access to the app hosting machine (screenshot reflects my PC which has IDS still enabled, but is initiating the access). I need guidance what disabling the IDS affects and what is my risk if I leave it disabled.
