Steps to reproduce:
- delete all application rules under “Network security policy”, leave default global rules;
- add iexplore.exe, firefox.exe to application rules with predifined policy “web browser”;
- add “All applications” group with “allow IP out any any” as the last entry under application rules of “Network security policy”.
- apply everywhere;
- set Firewall to “Custom” mode;
Result:
Any outgoing connections of any apps are blocked silently until Firewall is set to “Disabled” mode.
