Hello there,
I am not sure if this topic belongs here but I try anyway. I ran into an interesting problem when I tried to set up a test environment at my home network.
I'm working from a Win10 client with Bitdefender Total Security 2019. Now here's the problem: I installed Win Server 2016 Hyper-V on some old hardware and set up the remote management properly. My intent was to manage this server remotely with Win Server-Manager and Hyper-V-Manager. However, Hyper-V-Manager can't connect with the server at all. The Server-Manager connects at least partly and pings as well as RDP (remote desktop) work, but nothing else.
Server Manager gives this error: Online-Verify WinRM 3.0 service installed, running, and required firewall ports are open.
Now why I suspect Bitdefender to cause this problem is because after a complete deinstallation (with the windows firewall running instead) everything works fine and both programs fully connect to the server.
I've tried the following configs in Bitdefender:
Setting up a firewall rule to allow everything from the IP of the server -> No change
Setting up a firewall rule to allow everything from everywhere -> No change
Deactivation of the firewall -> No change
I have absolutely no clue what else to do and wanted to ask if anyone here has an idea before i look for a different security suite.
