Firewall modes

[Guest Alif]

In ESET antivirus :  what is the difference between automatic , interactive , policy based and learning filtering mode option of firewall settings ?

[Marcos 5,074]

Automatic mode - all outbound communication is allowed and any inbound non-initiated communication blocked.
Interactive mode - the user is asked to choose an action if no rule for the given communication exists.
Learning mode - a permissive rule will be created for any detected communication.
Policy-based mode - only the communication defined by rules will be allowed or blocked.

We recommend using automatic mode.
