Broad application of this type of configuration is less desirable, so GPO filtering by security group becomes attractive. This can be due to different operating systems, mixed requirements, and policy. It may not make sense to apply this GPO to an entire organizational unit. This is a good situation for using a security group to filter membership for a GPO.
In this GPO, you can set rules for a computer account for each of the profile types (Public, Private, and Domain) ( Figure A). (I’ve committed the command to memory.)įor Windows Firewall, you can set a computer’s account profiles in the Computer Configuration | Policies | Windows Settings | Security Settings | Windows Firewall With Advanced Security area of Group Policy. For Windows Core editions, you can learn the command to disable Windows Firewall via a prompt. On a per-server basis, Windows Firewall can still be managed through the interface in the Control Panel. One thing I really like about Windows Firewall is its ability to be centrally managed, and the best way to do this is through a Group Policy Object (GPO). While running firewalls is a good practice to protect systems from harm, it also can get in the way. He also warns of one risk to using Windows Firewall with Group Policy. Rick Vanover describes how to manage computer account profiles for Windows Firewall centrally with Group Policy. Managing Windows Firewall through Group Policy
