Windows Server 2008 Firewall Profiles

On Server 2008 and Windows Vista, there are three types of firewall profiles—Domain, Private, Public profile. You can set a Firewall state(rules) for each profile and each firewall profile applies depending on your network location. This allows you to set different firewall rules depending on your network location.
  • Domain Profile – applied automatically when your server is connected to the Active Directory domain.
  • Private Profile – you can assign this profile manually when your server is connected to any private address (192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, 172.31.x.x, etc.)
  • Public Profile – applied by default when your first connect the server to any unknown network.
