INetFwPolicy2::get_DefaultInboundAction method (netfw.h)
Specifies the default action for inbound traffic. These settings are Block by default.
This property is read/write.
Syntax
HRESULT get_DefaultInboundAction(
NET_FW_PROFILE_TYPE2 profileType,
NET_FW_ACTION *action
);
Parameters
profileType
action
Return value
None
Remarks
All interfaces are firewall-enabled. This means that all the exceptions (such as GloballyOpenPorts, Applications, or Services) which are specified in the profile, are ignored and only locally-initiated traffic is allowed.
When you pass a profile type obtained from the CurrentProfileTypes property, make sure that you pass only one profile type to get_DefaultInboundAction and put_DefaultInboundAction. Note that get_CurrentProfileTypes can return multiple profiles.
