Allow printing over port 515 from Internet - Bitdefender Total Security

Hello,

How can you add rule so printing is possible.

Everything works when Bitdefender firewall is disabled.

Even added a rule C:\Windows\System32\spoolsv.exe all ports enabled but seems not to work.

How can logging be enabled.

Don't see any logs created.

Thanks

Peter

    Hello @Peter A,

    In this case re-activate and set Bitdefender Firewall to recommended settings:

    1. Go to Network Adapters tab and set the network type to Home/Office using the drop-down menu near its name

    2. Then, from the same Firewall Tab, click on Settings from the top-right , then, for the network you're currently connected to, uncheck the stealth mode button to disable it.

    If this doesn't solve the issue, add a network exception by following the steps in this article:

    In the event printing is still not possible afterwards, click on the Settings tab from Firewall module and switch OFF Port scan protection.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Hello @Alexandru_BD

    Only thing that worked was adding global rule to allow incoming traffic for this port from specific server.

    All other settings port scan and stealth are still active.

    Thanks
