How to create a Windows Firewall outbound exception rule for the Remote Access Quarantine Agent service in Windows Server 2008
In Windows Server 2008, the Remote Access Quarantine Agent service restricts remote access clients from obtaining full access to a network until they meet the requirements of the network.Â
By default, there is a Windows Firewall inbound rule for the Remote Access Quarantine Agent service to enable traffic on TCP port 7250. However, you can configure other TCP ports for the Remote Access Quarantine Agent service. There is no outbound exception rule for the Remote Access Quarantine Agent service. To create an outbound exception rule in Windows Firewall for the default TCP port 7250 or in the configured TCP port, follow these steps:
- Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
- Double-click Windows Firewall, and then click Change settings.
- Click the Exceptions tab, and then click Add port.
- In the Name field, type RQS Agent name.
- In the Port number field, type 7250 or the port number that is configured for the Remote Access Quarantine Agent service.
- In the Protocol area, select TCP, and then click OK two times.
