Summary:
With Windows , the firewall is on by default. If you choose to run your server with the firewall up, you will need to configure it to allow other computers to access ExtremeZ-IP.
Description:
When configuring Windows Firewall you have two configuration possibilities. The first is to configure the ExtremeZ-IP process as an exception (easy/recommended) or configure the ports ExtremeZ-IP uses individually (advanced).
To configure the ExtremeZ-IP service as an exception:
Go Start -> Control Panel -> Windows Firewall
Click the “Exceptions” tab
Click “Add Program”
Click “Browse”
Browse and select the following file: ExtremeZ-IP.exe
Click “OK”
Click “OK”
To configure the ExtremeZ-IP Ports as exceptions:
Go Start -> Control Panel -> Windows Firewall
Click the “Exceptions” tab
Click “Add Port”
Add all ports or those you choose to use:
| Description | Ports | Type |
|---|---|---|
| TCP/IP Port for AFP Connections | 548 (default) | TCP |
| TCP/IP Port for Print Configuration | 8081 (default) | TCP |
| TCP/IP Port for Print Jobs | 515 (default) | TCP |
| *SLP Lookups | 427 | UDP |
| *SLP Lookups (large data return) | 427 | TCP |
| **Bonjour | 5353 | UDP |
| **Bonjour (large data return) | 5353 | TCP |
* Both port types must be added
** Both port types must be added
Note: If you choose to not add the SLP and/or Bonjour ports, you should disable those features inside of ExtremeZ-IP.
