Factory setting of the Windows Firewall on the Siemens PC system

The Windows Firewall settings on your Siemens PC system are appropriately configured by
PCU Base for IPC for the use of SINUMERIK software and systems. For security reasons, the
Windows Firewall is activated in the company network and expanded by additional rules. The
Windows Firewall is deactivated in the system network. The descriptions in this chapter
therefore largely relate to the adaptation of the firewall settings for the company network.
