i have just installed Personal Firewall and can’t find the location for opening firewall ports by port number.

It seems to be hidden somewhere?

/vfclists

Hello!

There isn’t an option to open ports, but instead, to open a port, you’ll need to create a rule both for the application (executable that connects to the Internet), and for Global Rules. It should look like this:

Action: Allow
Protocol: TCP or UDP
Direction: In
Source Address: Any
Destination Address: Any (or your IP, if using a static IP)
Source Port: Any
Destination Port: The port you want to open

Rules can be managed from Firewall → Advanced → Network Security Policy.

I have created a rule that monitors outgoing DNS requests on a system using ICS and set it up for event logging, but the requests are not logged.

I set it for port 53/UDP on IP address 192.168.0.1 but stilll nothing shows up.

Can you create a rule that I can apply to it? I have created rule shown below that is not working. I am not sure whether the problem is with the logging or the rule itself.

This is the rule

Action : Allow

Protocol : TCP or UDP

Direction: In or Out

Source Address: IP Range - 192.168.0.2 - 192.168.0.254

Destination Address: Single IP - 192.168.0.1

Source Port: Any

Destination Port : 53

What is the IP address of the ICS machine? Assuming it is 192.168.0.1 I would suggest the following rules:
Action : Allow

Protocol : TCP or UDP

Direction: Out

Source Address: Single IP - 192.168.0.1

Destination Address: DNS server #1 address

Source Port: 53

Destination Port : Any

Action : Allow

Protocol : TCP or UDP

Direction: Out

Source Address: Single IP - 192.168.0.1

Destination Address: DNS server #2 address

Source Port: 53

Destination Port : Any
