  • 1.  How can I block the FTP site using the SEPM firewall rule's

    Posted Dec 09, 2009 02:33 PM
    I have tried to block the FTP site using the SEPM firewall rule & under the services I have blocked the FTP service & also enabled the Packet capture but I am not getting any luck with it. Have anyone tried this & does this works?

    What type of control do you have set on your client?

    - Server Control, Mix or Client Control?

    If you have client control, all server-based fw policy rules will be ignored.

    Do you want to block all ftp sites?
    Then you can create a fire wall rule by selecting the network service
    In the add rule wizard you can select network service and in the next screen you will get an option as ftp server. Select this and set the action as block
    Note:You can add exceptions in this rule if req.

    Try by making it as server control
    For this
    Login to SEPM
    Clients----------> <prefered group>--------->policies (right side) ------>client user interface control settings ( under location specific settings)---------->select server control and give ok

    In the firewall policies keep the policy which you created as first policy.
    If you want to get logs in the client  write to traffic log /write to packet log should be selected .This you can do by right clicking on that rule in logging column..
