Dear colleagues,
we are testing Cisco Proximity in our infrastructure (Windows 7 & Windows 10). We saw during installation the software installed an Inbound and Outbound Rule "Proximity sharing over TCP (TCP sharing-In/Out)". This rule we now implemented in our Firewall Rule set. Under Windows 7 I can use the software directly with for example an SX20 codec (CE 9.4.0). But with a Windows 10 notebook it does not work. It is not finding the codec - it has the same FW rules configured then for the Windows 7 notebook. If I switch off the firewall - the Proximity software is directly working and finding the codec.
As I couldn´t find any documentation regarding Firewall: which rules are needed to get Proximity running under Windows 10?
Thank´s a lot.
Best regards,
Luise

Dear mneergaa,
we know that document and we enabled the rule which will be installed during Proximity software installation. Here you can find the inbound/outbound rule - it allows all ports for the proximity.exe:
The program installed that rule during installation of Proximity software only for TCP but we then rolled out a Firewall rule (as all non company rules will not be accepted) for all ports for this .exe - but it is not working. It is only working if I disable the firewall completely. The rule which will be installed seems to be not enough. But as I can´t allow per defaul all TCP in/out - I need an exact rule how to get Proximity running.
Thanks a lot.
Best regards,
Luise
