Firewalling for the Agnitum Outpost Firewall Pro






 

Before we can open ports for 360Share, we need to figure out what port 360Share is using. Here is a brief walkthrough on how to do that. Go ahead and open up 360Share.



Click Tools in the menu at the top of your screen. In the list that drops down click Options.



In the menu at the left hand side of your screen double click the Advanced option. Clicking Advanced, should drop down a couple more options. In this new list of options click the Firewall Config option. Put a dot into the Manual Port open radio button. The port you need to open is in the box to the right of the Manual Port open text. You can change this port if you want to. Just keep in mind that whatever port is in the Manual Port open box, should also be in the Listen On Port box. Then click the Apply button at the bottom of the page.

Please enter the number that was in the Manual Port open box into the box below.

360Share's Port for incoming connections

Open up 360Share.


You might see a window pop up like the one above. If you do, put a dot in to the Allow all activities for this application radio button, and click the Ok button. If you try modifing the permissions for 360Share with it open, you will get popup windows while trying to make your changes. So it's best to close 360Share. Go ahead and do that now. Then go aheand and open up the Agnitum Outpost Firewall Pro.


Click Options in the menu at the top of your screen. Then click the Application link in the submenu that drops down.


Now you should be looking at a window that displays a list of applications that you have on your computer. Find 360Share and right click it. Click the Create Rules or the Modify Rules link depending upon what show up in that list.


Go ahead and remove all the rules that are listed here. When you are done adding the rules shown on this page, be sure to look at the outgoing guides and add those rules as well. If 360Share is not listed in the outgoing guides, create a rule that allows all outbound traffic for 360Share.We are going to show you exactly how to configure the Lavasoft firewall from here on out. So you should make the screens look exactly like they do in this guide.
