Local Area Connection* 10 (Teredo) - Generic On or Off?
Hello!
My Firewall was set as Private in Windows prior to Bitdefender installation. On both computers I own Bitdefender sets Firewall as Home, with these settings: Ethernet Stealth Off, Generic Off and Teredo (on screenshot is Local Area Connection* 10, on another computer is Teredo, that is the same as far as I understand) Stealth Off, Generic On. I have uploaded screenshot.
So Generic is Off for Ethernet and On for Teredo.
In topic ''What is Teredo Tunneling Pseudo-interface'' (link included at bottom of my post) it is the other way around. Teredo have Generic Off and Ethernet On.
Which settings should I use?
I am a little bit worried that Trusted setting (not Home/Office) and Stealth Off from Teredo adapter will be used somewhere where they should not be used, since Generic is On, or is that not possible?
That other thread made me a little confused about these settings.
On the other hand, I don't want to have to manage settings per application, I just want to let Bitdefender make their own decisions.
Thanks!

One more question if anybody can give me advice. Why Teredo is set on Trusted instead on Home? Trusted is Firewall off setting, isn't it?0 -
Hello,
To simply answer, VPN or Virtual adapters are considered safe and should be treated as such to allow proper functionality.
They are not a direct pipe like the physical adapter.0
