Firewall issues in a Windows 10 member PC
I am performing some tests in a lab environment. I installed a Windows Server 2019 server and promoted it to a domain controller for the root domain of a new forest. I installed a Windows 10 client...
How did you set the firewall, is it private or public?
Did you add the PC to the domain?
Are you able to ping from Server or Client?
Are you using Windows Firewall?

Many thanks for your answer.
Let me clarify: I did not set anything. I simply installed Windows 10 "next" "next" "next".
I joined the PC (a VM) to a domain.
At that point I discovered that the firewall was enabled for all the networks (private, public and domain).
My questions are:
- Is it the standard behavior?
- Am I missing any relevant step?
- Should the firewall stay enabled for a Windows 10 member PC, even if it does limit some domain funcions (i.e. Group Policy Results)?
- What is the best practice?
