Hotspot through Windows Defender Firewall
I would like to know ALL ports and protocols, services, etc... that need to be whitelisted for hotspot to work with windows defender firewall.
Or otherwise the baseline/recommended procedure
I have tested to enable the below so far:
Inbound/Outbound:
UDP:67,68,53, 5355
TCP:443,80, 53
ICMP4/6: protocols 1/58 Types and codes: 0/8
Services: icssvc
I still get drop events here and there in Windows Defender firewall logs for ports 80/ICMP, etc......
Any Idea what could be the reason and what is the best way to set this up to allow hotspot access from the device.
