thanks Marcos! that helps and it's part of the pro for ESET firewall management.

Maybe I wasn't clear enough. What i need is a reason to enable ESET firewall instead of Windows 10 firewall. And I also would like to have information that confirm that a perimeter firewall it isn't enough for enterprise security. What they say is "if it's working (without ESET firewall) leave it" (do you have any good reason to enable ESET firewall?), or 'we already have a perimeter firewall" like if that will protect from LAN originated threats. So, what would be a good reason to enable ESET firewall? Because we work with business or enterprise software we are not interested that the firewall have full user interaction capabilities of outbound internet traffic. So is there any advantage? If there is no other feature that is disabled when you disable ESET firewall, then the only good reasons that I can think are: 1. More security. If the company doesn't have another management software or don't use any build-in Windows features to manage firewalls, then enabling ESET firewall will give you a better way to manage them (i.e. configurations, alerts, etc.). 2. It will be less easier for a hacker to change firewall rules if the ESET configuration is locked and the rules also isn't in windows registry. Is there anything else you may know that can help me to convince to have ESET firewall enabled instead of using windows 10 firewall? The other question I have... The ability to block incoming attacks or block specific vulnerabilities is build in ESET firewall feature (i.e. if is disabled, it won't block that?). If it is, then that's another big reason to enable ESET firewall instead of using Windows 10 firewall.

I need more information about differences (in detail i.e. Windows 10 firewall store their rules in Registry) between ESET Endpoint Security firewall and Windows 10 firewall. I am trying to convince my boss to use ESET firewall instead of Windows 10 firewall. I also would like to know what other features may be disabled if you disable only ESET firewall. i.e. IDS. If you may also have any statistic information that I can use to say that only firewall at the perimeter is not enough (talking about firewall related threats).
