Description
Windows Firewall Element is not applying to any Windows 2003, 2008, 2008 R2, 2012, 2012 R2, 2016 servers OS (operating systems). The OS classes described are also not showing up as options or are grayed out and cannot be selected.
Cause
By design, the User Management Profile's "Windows Firewall" elements are not applicable to any Windows Server OS. Desktop Authority Windows Firewall elements are not applicable and can only be applied to client OS (Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10).
Resolution
There are no resolutions. Server firewalls are recommended to be configured via Microsoft standards and security policies. Currently this is not supported by Desktop Authority and there are no current plans to do so.
