Hi All,
I currently have Windows Firewall disabled in my environment, but I plan to enable it. If I enable Windows Firewall, what inbound and outbound traffic or ports are blocked or allowed by default?For example, let’s say I enable Windows Firewall on Server01, which has an application installed on it, and Server02 is unable to access the application. What logs can I check on Server01 to determine which traffic is hitting it and which ports are being blocked? Additionally, I have a third-party antivirus solution running on my servers. Is it a good approach to enable Windows Firewall alongside this antivirus solution? Please guide me.
