firewall policy

[Aim2018 0]

HI,

What if configure   windows firewall (Adding exceptions )  Instead of  creating firewall policy in eset .

Will it work ? 

eg :

netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="Open Remote Desktop" protocol=TCP dir=in localport=3389 action=allow

Thanks

As long as the option to evaluate also Windows Firewall rules is enabled, it should work. However, RDP is allowed in the trusted zone by default. For security reasons we do not recommend connecting to machines from outside. Instead, use VPN, 2FA or firewall rules to restrict access to specific IP addresses.
