Firewalling for the BullGuard Personal Firewall






 
Open up Battlefield Vietnam.


You might see a window pop up like the one above. If you do, put a check mark in to the Remember my answer and don't ask again checkbox. Then click the Yes button. Doing this allows all traffic in and out of your network for that program. Now we will show you how to limit what ports are allowed for that application. Go ahead and open up BullGuard now.


Click the Firewall button near the left hand side of the page.




On this page you will see a User Level drop down box. Make sure that it is set to Advanced. Then click the Profiles tab at the top of the screen.


Double click the Custom Security button.


Now click the Security tab at the top of this window.


Make sure there is a checkmark in the Detect Modified Applications checkbox. Then click on the Application Rules tab at the top of the window.


You should see an entry for Battlefield Vietnam in this table. If you see more than one entry for this application, delete the others so that there is only one entry. It is currently set to allow all traffic for this program. Change the Direction drop down box from In + Out to Incoming and click the OK button at the bottom of the page.


Another window should pop up for Battlefield Vietnam. Once again put a check mark in to the Remember my answer and don't ask again checkbox.Then click the Yes button at the bottom of that window. Now go back to BullGuard.


Double click the Custom Security button.


You should now see two rules for Battlefield Vietnam in this table. One of those rule's Direction should be set to Incomming. The other rule's Direction would be set to In + Out. Change this second rule's Direction to Outgoing. Now we have two rules for Battlefield Vietnam. One of them will regulate the incoming traffic and the other one will regulate the outgoing traffic.If this program does not act as a server, please set the Policy drop down box to Block for the Incomming rule. Double click the Ports... drop down box for the Outgoing rule.
