Reg edit for opening sp2 firewall ports

[trouble]

Does someone have a reg edit file to open ports on the sp2 firewall. I need to open ports 12000 tcp 13000 tcp and 15000 udp on about 60 workstations.

If you were to run Advanced Registry Tool(ART) before and after you would have your registry file.

Don't have an appropriate regkey, but you can open a port in commandline( so with a batchfile) with "netsh firewall set portopenng"

You can set all your rules on one machine, export this key :

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\StandardProfile\GloballyOpenPorts\List

and execute the .reg file on machines you want.

I have just test in it's okay, you can set rules manually too:

REG_SZ name Port:Protocol Example-> 21:TCP

REG_SZ value Port:Protocol:Area:Description Example-> 21:TCP:LocalSubNet:FTPServerLocal

Goodbye.

EDIT: You can set rules for programs too ... look HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\StandardProfile\AuthorizedApplications

put this in your logon script..(if you have a domain, ect)

change the "description" to what the port represents

netsh firewall add portopening tcp 12000 "description"

netsh firewall add portopening tcp 13000 "description"

netsh firewall add portopening udp 15000 "description"
