my network performance is going down day by day as my remote clients have installed p2p applications like kazza ,morpheus ,winmx etc etc .. i know the ports my clients use to connect to it wat is the best way to block it ? wat would be appropiate ..
Hi All, I followed you and blocked TCP port 1214 to whack Kazaa, but it does'nt seem to work. I created a protocol definition- outbound TCP 1214, and than blocked it with a protocol rule. My logs show that Kazaa uses TCP ports from 1042 to 4678, UDP similar. I blocked all them, but Kazaa still connects. On the other hand I only want to set the lowest bandwidth for it. Help...
Hi, You need to create Deny rules in S&C Rule and in protocol rules to deny .mp3 and etc from being download and to play live. also configure http redirectory to make sure every request goes through web proxy so no one can by pass the ISA Server. You can also findout what port that application is using like iwinmx uses 1214 tcp outbond and you can block it in protocls rule by creating deny rule for this specific protocol. One more thing you can do to restrict kazaa and realplayer type things is to implement itegrated authnetication on outgoing web request.
