Firewall Outbound Rules

Hello,

Currently, advanced installer allows us to set the firewall inbound rules.
Can the ability of setting outbound rules also be added?

At the moment, this can be achieved by a custom action (using PowerShell), but if this can be done natively, it would be great.

Thank you.

Re: Firewall Outbound Rules

Hello Prerak,
Currently, advanced installer allows us to set the firewall inbound rules.
Indeed, you are right, we currently only support to set firewall inbound rules.

However, we have the support to also set firewall outbound rules on our TODO list of improvements and this will be implemented in a future version of Advanced Installer.

I will let you know when this improvement will be added by updating this thread.
