Firewall Custom Settings
Use this page to define custom settings for the environment where client computers operate.
Custom settings are typically recommended when computers using this policy meet one of these
criteria:
They should allow communications from system services only through specific ports or from
a specific range of IP addresses.
They function as servers that provide system services.
Custom settings specify:
Which system service ports client computers are allowed to communication through.
Which IP addresses client computers are allowed to accept communications from.
Changes you make to custom settings do not take effect until you click Save on the Desktop
Firewall tab.

Trusted network: The computer connects to a network that is
protected from the Internet by a hardware firewall or router. The
firewall protection service should allow communications from IP
addresses on the same subnet.
Custom settings: The computer should communicate only with
specified ports and IP addresses. Click
