Proper Exclusions/Exceptions with Port Numbers

[Haider]

In general what are the exclusions/exceptions with port numbers that needs to be added to any hardware based firewall for proper communication with update server(s)

Hi -

Please list your Operating System and the Firewall components, and the makers, that you wish to have excluded -

Without this information there can be no direct answer -

Thank You -

Thanks noknojon: Fully patched Windows XP Professional SP3, as far the other part I just need the URL of update server please...

Greetings Haider

The update server will use the mbamupdates.com address so adding the following (as long as wildcards are allowed, which they generally are with hardware firewalls and web filters) should do the trick:

*.mbamupdates.com
