Windows Firewall is a stateful host firewall that drops all unsolicited incoming traffic. This behavior of Windows Firewall provides some protection from malicious users and programs that use unsolicited incoming traffic to attack computers. More information can be found in the Microsoft Windows Firewall Operations Guide at http:// technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc739696(WS.10).aspx. If you are using IPsec, consult the Microsoft TechNet article, Managing IPSec and Multicast Settings, at http:/ /technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc779589(WS.10).aspx. Note Windows Firewall is disabled by default on systems that have been upgraded to SP1. Systems that have a new installation of Windows Server 2008 R2 have Windows Firewall enabled by default. When you enable Windows Firewall on your servers, open all ports that the Unified ICM/Unified CCE components require. Cisco provides a utility to automatically allow all traffic from Unified ICM/Unified CCE applications on a Windows Server 2008 R2. Additionally, the utility can open ports for common third-party applications used in the Unified ICM/Unified CCE environment. The script reads the list of ports in the file %SYSTEMDRIVE%\CiscoUtils\FirewallConfig\CiscoICMfwConfig_exc.xml and uses the directive contained therein to modify the firewall settings.
