Vero & Norton Firewall

Help and Support Vero 4K / Vero 4K +
1

Hi,
I have my files in network-shared drives on a Win 11 desktop (& using SMB). However, if I reboot my PC, Vero can’t access the shares unless I toggle Norton Smart firewall off then on.
After that, Vero works fine, obviously until next PC reboot.

I can work around it, but is there anything I can define in the Smart F/Wall settings to avoid the need for toggling of/on?

many thanks!

Is there a setting for SMB server? If not, we could give you custom port settings to configure.

I can see this in my F/wall logging:

I tried setting a rule to Allow that IP for TCP(6), but no change.

What are the options in Protocol and/or Profile?

Lots!

And “Profile”?

For SMB you would need to allow
TCP: 445
TCP/UDP: 137-139

thanks - would that be local or remote ports?
