McAfee Firewall Configurations
22 McAfee Firewall
Default settings for applications
When installed, the default setting is to prompt the user before allowing an
application to communicate. The first time you run an application that uses the
network, you will be prompted.
If you choose "Yes", the application will be allowed to communicate normally,
as it would without McAfee Firewall running.
If you choose "No", the application will be blocked and will probably report an
error message, such as "Network is unavailable".
If you allow an application the first time you are prompted, you may change
this and block it at any time: just select the Settings/Applications menu item.
There, you can move applications into either the "Trusted" list or the "Blocked"
list.
When you exit McAfee Firewall, your settings are saved and will be the same
the next time it is run.
Systems
Control system
The operating system performs many types of network communication
without reporting directly to the user. McAfee Firewall lets the user allow or
block different system functions explicitly. Settings may be different for each
network device, since a PC may, for example, be on an internal network as well
as having a dial-up connection to the Internet.
To control System settings, click on the Settings menu item and choose System.
Then choose the network device you want to configure.
