Firewall for PC

I have a general query related to the firewall for small LAN. We have two PC that connects to the internet via ADSL line. They want to access certain resources of the local network of the company by establishing another NIC on the PC and plug it into our local area network. Because it is a security problem what is the way more economic/make sure to do this with the use of firewall?

Thank you

Firewall for small business solutions are available as software or hardware (with software components). Software firewalls protect each individual PC, they are installed on. But to protect the computers in your organization, each must have a software firewall installed. It can be difficult to maintain.

On the other hand, the hardware firewall for small business solutions protect all computers on your network. A hardware-based firewall is easier to administer, too.

The ideal firewall for small business solutions integrate a hardware firewall with software controls in a comprehensive security solution that includes support for virtual private network (VPN), antivirus, antispam, antispyware and content filtering capabilities.

  • Y at - it an anti virus that goes with my default firewall for windows xp

    Y at - it an anti virus that goes with my default firewall for windows xp? I had microsoft essentials, but it comes with a separate firewall

    Microsoft Security Essentials does not include a firewall, it fits with the (default) Windows Firewall. During installation, Microsoft Security Essentials scans the PC to determine if a firewall is enabled on the PC. If no firewall protection is present, you can turn on the Windows Firewall. See features and benefits-Windows Firewall integration. http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/products/security-essentials/product-information

    What do you currently use for antivirus protection? If none came preinstalled on a trial basis? You make sure that you remove any other antimvirus/anitmalware real-time software before installing MSE? Refer to the following:

    List of product anti-malware removal tools
    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/protect/Forum/protect_start/list-of-anti-malware-program-cleanupuninstall/407bf6da-C05D-4546-8788-0aa4c25a1f91

    OR http://experts.Windows.com/w/experts_wiki/89.aspx

    No antivirus/antimalware software will offer 100% protection. MSE is as good, if not better than the other free and paid for the products. It is well suited for older machines to XP because it is light on the use of resources and as stated earlier suits well with the firewall of Windows (default).

  • Adding a firewall for the MC FW which is located on the outside area

    Hi all

    Is it possible to add a firewall for the FW MC that is located on the external interface of the firewall? If so, what commands do you need on the firewall?

    Thank you and best regards,

    Hello

    In principle might be possible, what need the VMS Svr (FW MC) is a communication channel to the target, the outside Firewall (firewall EXTERNAL) device.

    You can try the following, to confrm.

    Your topology/flow very probably as follows:

    inside intf: EXTERNAL Firewall: ouside intf<->INTERNET CLOUD<->internet router<->router internet<->outside intf:PERIMETER Firewall: inside intf<->VMS:FW MC

    A. for the EXTERNAL firewall, configure:

    1 activate https & ssh access to/from the server of virtual machines. Access to the Svr VMS must be via a public IP address that mapped to the firewall's PERIMETER server.

    2. open access HTTPS & ssh (tcp 443 & 22). SSH may be optional, but you can activate it as well. HTTPS is required to communicate with the virtual Svr computers.

    Enable http server

    255.255.255.255 out http

    2. for ssh, generate a key for the firewall. The condition is as follows:

    -set the host name: "abc123 hostname.

    -define the domain name: "domain name xyz".

    -generate the key: "ca generate rsa key. The button of the module is between 512 and 768, 1024, 2048

    -Save the key: "ca save all."

    B. for the PERIMETER firewall, configure:

    1 static machines card virtual FW MC Svr to address external public IP for firewall mgt traffic

    public static xx.xx.xx.10 (Interior, exterior) aa.aa.aa.50 netmask 255.255.255.255

    2. open the ACLs on the external interface to the public IP address of external firewalls VM FW MC

    outside permit tcp host yy.yy.yy.100 host xx.xx.xx.10 eq https access list

    access-list outside allow host yy.yy.yy.100 host xx.xx.xx.10 eq ssh tcp

    outside access-group in external interface

    * yy.yy.yy.100 is an EXTERNAL firewall outside interface IP

    3. by default, the configuration of the VMS OPR statically with a public IP address, it should be able to go internet. But if you have ACLs on the inside interface, you need to enable access to the EXTERNAL firewall via https and ssh (tcp 443 & 22).

    inside permit tcp host xx.xx.xx.100 host yy.yy.yy.10 eq https access list

    access-list inside allow host xx.xx.xx.100 host yy.yy.yy.10 eq ssh tcp

    group-access to the Interior in the interface inside

    Also, enable/add ICMP on the two outside & inside to test accessibility for both devices. If you have ACLs on internet router, make sure that you allow the two firewall EXTERNAL and VMS Svr pass-through.

    It is a purely theoretical Setup. It may not work or need some changes.

  • What TCP/UDP ports must be open on a firewall for adobe reader and Flash Player?

    What TCP/UDP ports must be open on a firewall for adobe reader and flashplaer to work properly? This would include the update, which connects and no matter what subset of functionality.

    The Acrobat family uses TCP, HTTP/HTTPS for all traffic. Ports and the following processes can be active on a client computer in Windows:

    AdobeARM.exe - automatic updates - port 443

    AcroRd32.exe - brand messages - port 443

    AcroRd32.exe - links in documents - whatever that is specified in the URL

    Acrobat.exe - brand messages - port 443

    Acrobat.exe - links in documents - whatever that is specified in the URL

    AdobeCollabSync.exe - review Tracker data - port 443

    The same ports are used by the components of program on OS X.

    There is no listen to incoming ports for all elements of the Acrobat family. Automatic updates are not pushed, and there is no server in the software process.

  • Airport Extreme connected to TIVO: why I can not change Type firewall for IPv4.  Field displays IPv6 and is grayed out so I can't change.

    TIVO requires certain ports to be unblocked.  So I try to add the ports requiring TIVO.  But when you try to add the default Type of firewall IPv6 Port Mapping ports and I can't change the value of the IPv4 Port Mapping because the input field is grayed out and no is not accessible.  With Port IPv6 mapping I enter values in all areas except for the IPv6 address because I do not know what value to enter.  I think the button 'save' ' is not available to hit because the IPv6 address field is empty or not valid.  Note: my router Mode is ' Off (Bridge Mode).  Same questions if my router DHCP Mode.

    I changed my router Mode DHCP and NAT, then on the Type of firewall on the default page add ports, IPv4 Port Mapping and I could add ports but with this setting, I couldn't connect to internet in my Airport Extreme: my status remains orange light flashing.

    I use Comcast and my Airport Extreme is connected to my Comcast router using ethernet.

    I use my Airport Extreme as a router (wired and WIRELESS) and as a backup device.

    My TIVO is connected to my Airport Extreme using ethernet.

    How can I add the Ports requiring TIVO.

    Golden in the networking rule. ....... Never try to configure port mapping when you have two devices on the same network the two acting as a router.

    Unfortunately, this is exactly what you're trying to do.

    You have three options:

    (1) run the Comcast router "as what" and configure the port on the device of Comcast mapping... .the airPort Extreme must be configured in Bridge Mode when you do this.

    (2) lance to the AirPort Extreme router Mode of DHCP and NAT and configure the ports on the airport map... the peripheral Comcast must be configured to operate as a simple modem in Bridge Mode when you do this. 


    (3) lance to the AirPort Extreme router Mode of DHCP and NAT and configure the ports on the airport map... swap Comcast modem/router you have now for a simple modem (it will have only a single Ethernet port).

    In other words, either the Comcast is defined as the router and AirPort Extreme is in Bridge Mode... or... the AiPort Extreme is configured as a router and Comcast must be configured in Bridge Mode.

    If you choose Option 1, then we can not help you on a matter of Comcast router. In bridged Mode, the AirPort Extreme requires no configuration.

    If you choose Option 2 or Option 3, then we the following port values that the Tivo device needs:

    Public or UDP ports

    Public TCP

    UDP private

    Private TCP

    In addition, you need to find the MAC address for the TIVO.  It is a long code that looks something like this, for example:

    A1: B2: C3: D4: E5: F6

    A link to the Tivo instructions for port mapping would also be very useful.  I have done this with a TIVO in the past, but is for some years.

    If all goes well, an expert of TIVO will post to lend a hand.

  • HTTP error 12029 has something to do with my configuration of firewall for Windows XP. My internet will not pass by for my mainframe... Suggestions?

    See title

    XP behaves a little differently from Windows 7 or Vista.  The first edition (before Service Pack 1) had a lot of questions and by releasing SP1, you could not make it back in the original XP.   There are four packs of service out there for XP so you can search the Internet and make sure that the latest service pack is on your machine. http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/322389

    Assuming that you have the latest, the firewall is available mainly to keep people on the internet to take advantage of open ports and such that your application can use for internet communication, so when you configure firewall rules, you have set up for most of the inbound rules.   If there are viruses on your machine, you can configure outgoing rules, but it would be better to run a fix for the virus.

    Knowing that the firewall is designed to protect you from the internet, it might be useful to check if the firewall you have installed is sophisticated enough to enable rules that block your machine to go to the internet (outbound rules).

    But your problem is 12029 who is likely related to internet explore.  You can try a question that was answered on this subject http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_other-windows_update/error-12029-in-ie-8/47a865dc-3237-4e07-84a9-d9fb20a766e3

    1. open IE/tools/options/advanced /.

    2 - Press the Reset button

    also your LAN settings may have been tampered with, so open the settings of the LAN to Internet Explorer/Tools/Options/connections/Lan Settings and disable everything that you see here:

  • How can I add a rule of outgoing traffic in the Windows Firewall for Windows Update?

    How can I add a rule of outgoing traffic in ICF for Windows Update?

    Please do not ask me to change the firewall policy. My default policy for outbound connections is 'block '. Many programs to connect to internet without attention users and consumes bandwidth so I limited firewall to block strategy, but the Microsoft Update or the Windows update service is not running.

    Please suggest the creation of a rule of outgoing traffic in "Windows Firewall with advanced security" to allow Windows Update.

    This is not a third-party firewall program.

    This is a duplicate of http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/w/fw/7f9c04c1-5216-47d9-9de3-64cc19eb796d with an additional constraint of the firewall rule creation. My version was not on a list of exceptions. "Windows Firewall ships with this version of Windows and should already include these sites in the exceptions list.

    Not a duplicate of the 2012 wire that was bound to win 7 and you are running 8.1 firewall should already have an update exception.  If it does not please a snip of the outbound rules in your next post.

  • PowerCLI to change the authorized strategy of firewall for ip addresses

    I need to change the Firewall setting ESXi allow connections from any IP address to a list of networks.

    Using the get-esxcli cmdlet can I put the ip address is to be used.

    (Get-VMHost $esxhost)
    $esxcli = get-EsxCli - VMHost $esxhost

    $esxcli.network.firewall.ruleset.allowedip.add ("172.16.29.0/24", "sshServer")

    The question I have is to run the above, I firstly need to go in vcenter and manually change the Firewall setting for all IPs to only these ip.

    When I put my $esxcli and run: $esxcli.network.firewall.ruleset.set

    It is the output:

    TypeNameOfValue: VMware.VimAutomation.ViCore.Util10Ps.EsxCliExtensionMethod

    OverloadDefinitions: (boolean allowedall, boolean active, string rulesetid) set {boolean}

    MemberType: CodeMethod

    Value: boolean set (boolean allowedall, boolean active, string rulesetid)

    Name: set

    IsInstance: true

    I think its possible to change the permit for people with disabilities, but I can't understand what they mean by that together (boolean allowedall, boolean active, string rulesetid).  I understand that the rulesetid string is sshServer, but what do they mean with Boolean allowedall?

    Has anyone ever done this before?

    You pass a Boolean value ($true or $false) and allowedall, this means

    • $true: all IP addresses are allowed
    • $false: only the IP addresses in the IP list are allowed

    See the documentation for network esxcli commands for the meaning of these parameters.
