Firewall configuration

Configuring the firewall on Windows®

NOTE:

For other operating systems, see the operating system documents on enabling or

disabling ports on the firewall.

Windows® Firewall blocks most communication through unused IP ports. This prevents a server with the
UPS Power Protection Agent installed from using port 3573 to communicate with the HP UPS
Management Module.
To configure the Windows® XP with Service Pack 2 Firewall to make an exception for port 3573:

1.

Click Start, select Control Panel, and then double-click Network Connections. The Network
Connections screen appears.

2.

Right-click the network connection where you are configuring the firewall, and then select Properties.
The Properties screen appears.
