Your network contain an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain contains a computer named Computer1 that runs Windows 10. Computer1 connects to a home network and a corporate network.
The corporate network uses the 172.16.0.0/24 address space internally.
Computer1 runs an application named App1 that listens to port 8080.
You need to prevent connections to App1 when Computer1 is connected to the home network.
Solution: From Windows Firewall with Advanced Security, you create an inbound rule.
Does this meet the goal?
Answer options
- A. Yes
- B. No
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Creating an inbound rule in Windows Firewall with Advanced Security specifically allows you to control network traffic based on the network connection. By configuring the rule to block connections to App1 when connected to the home network, you effectively meet the goal. The other option, 'No', is incorrect because it suggests that the firewall rule would not achieve the desired outcome.
