    How do u define an internal and external ports?


    An application accepts network requests from the internet. If the application uses port 1300 and the service listens on port 1200. How should ICF be configured (ports to be added as an exception in the firewall, IF REQUIRED) on the computer of a person:-
    1. who hosts the service
    2. who accesses the service.


    Please clarify. Help appreciated.

    Well I would assume that if it uses ports 1200 - 1300 then you should put ports 1200 - 1300 on the exceptions.

    ICF only blocks unsolicited incoming requests so the answers should be
    1. 1200
    2. not required
