Editor to share with you what kind of tool WindowsFirewallRuleset is, I believe most people do not know much about it, so share this article for your reference, I hope you can learn a lot after reading this article, let's go to know it!

WindowsFirewallRuleset

The tool has organized Windows firewall rules into separate PowerShell scripts based on the following factors:

1. Rule group

2. Flow direction

3. IP version (IPv4/IPv6)

4. Further classification according to procedures and services

For example:

1. ICMP traffic

2. Browser rules

3. Windows system rules

4. Stored applications

5. Windows service

6. Microsoft program

7. Third-party programs

8. Broadcast traffic

9. Wait.

You can choose the rules to use according to your needs, and use the command to complete the firewall configuration.

All rules can be loaded directly into group policy, which is more powerful than the default Windows firewall configuration rules.

System requirements

1. Windows 10 Professional or Enterprise Edition

2. Windows PowerShell 5.1: [click me to download]

3. Git (optional): [click me to download]

Download and use of tools

First, right-click the taskbar, then select taskbar Settings, and check "replace the command prompt with Windows PowerShell in the menu when I right-click the start button or press Windows + X."

Right-click the "start" button, click "Windows PowerShell", open PowerShell with administrator privileges and enter the following command:

Get-ExecutionPolicy

Then enter:

Set-ExecutionPolicy-Scope CurrentUser-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted-Forcecd C:\ git clone git@github.com:metablaster/WindowsFirewallRuleset.gitcd WindowsFirewallRuleset.\ SetupFirewall.ps1

After the execution is complete, we can complete the rule settings by entering the following command to execute the script:

Set-ExecutionPolicy-Scope CurrentUser-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned-Force\ apply a separate rule set

If you only want to apply specific rules, you have the following two ways:

1. Execute the SetupFirewall.ps1 script, and then output the rule set you need to use, or enter "n" and press enter to skip the current rule set.

2. In the PowerShell terminal window, go to the directory that contains the rule set script, and then execute the specific PowerShell script.

Run the FirewallProfile.ps1 script to apply the default firewall rules, or manually configure it directly in GPO.

Delete a rule

According to this version, we can select the rule we need to delete directly in the local group policy, then right-click and delete. If we need to restore the state of the firewall, we also need to delete all the rules from the GPO, then right-click the "Windows Defender Firewall with Advanced Security-Local Group Policy Object" node and set all the properties to "Not configured".

Manage loaded rules

We have the following two ways to manage loaded rules:

1. Use local group policy, which will restrict the use of rules.

2. Edit the PowerShell script. This method allows us to have the most complete control. We can promote rules, add rules, or modify rules.
