Firewall GPOs

Applies to

• Windows 10
• Windows 11
• Windows Server 2016 and above

All the devices on Woodgrove Bank's network that run Windows are part of the isolated domain, except domain controllers. To configure firewall rules, the GPO described in this section is linked to the domain container in the Active Directory OU hierarchy, and then filtered by using security group filters and WMI filters.

The GPO created for the example Woodgrove Bank scenario includes GPO_DOMISO_Firewall.
