General Discussion / open port to allow single application to a static IPv4
« on: March 20, 2023, 04:13:15 pm »
Hello
I am required to use an application under Windows7, which sends telemetry-information to a static
IPv4 address over HTTPS and does download some programm-code everytime it's started.
I gave up trying to configure Windows-Firewall for this
Questions:
- is it possible to set such a rule in OPNsense?
- or should I use a personal firewall installed on that Windows machine?
- does it make a difference if I do have a Dualstack or DSlite?
Thank's a lot for your feedback!
Joe
PS
Do not yet have an OPNsense based firewall
