One of the security challenges that network admins face is configuring a machine properly after a network change.
Network changes can happen frequently. Additionally, the operations required to re-categorize the network after a change and apply the correct security policies on a machine are non-trivial and may require considerable CPU time. This is especially true for machines that are part of the domain. In the past, the delay in applying security policies during network re-categorization has been successfully exploited for vulnerabilities.

To counter this potential exploitation, Windows Firewall will quarantine an interface until the system has successfully re-categorized the network and Windows Filtering Platform (WFP) has the correct filters applied for the updated interface configuration. During quarantine, all new inbound connections without exceptions are blocked to the machine.

These commands generate a wfpdiag.cab. Inside the .cab exists a wfpdiag.xml, which contains drop `netEvents` and filters that existed during that reproduction.
Inside the wfpdiag.xml, search for `netEvents` which have `FWPM_NET_EVENT_TYPE_CLASSIFY_DROP` as the `netEvent` type. To find the relevant drop events, search for the drop events with matching destination IP address, package SID, or application ID name.
