Merubah scope firewall di windows server 2003

windows server 2003

Firewall merupakan software/hardware yang digunakan untuk memberikan aturan-aturan tertentu pada sebuah komputer/server. Tujuannya, agar komputer kita lebih aman dari serangan hacker. Pada windows terdapat built in firewall yang bisa kita atur sedemikian rupa. Secara default port ditutup oleh firewall, sehingga ketika kita menghidupkan firewall, kita harus mendefinisikan program/service tertentu agar di allow untuk diakses.

Salah satu program yang secara default di block oleh firewall adalah file/printer sharing. Apabila kita menghidupkan firewall, maka kita tidak bisa melakukan folder sharing pada komputer kita. Agar bisa sharing kita harus menambahkan File/Printer sharing pada Firewall exception.

Secara default firewall exception pun hanya menambahkan pada scope subnet. Sehingga file sharing hanya bisa dilakukan di komputer yang berada dalam satu subnet dengan komputer kita. Untuk merubah scope firewall lakukan langkah-langkah berikut :

1. Buka windows firewall
2. Pilih exception tab
3. Click File/Printer sharing
4. Click Edit
5. Click Change Scope pada setiap port
6. Pilih any computer untuk memberikan privilege sharing
