Values
GroupName |
Specifies the name of a Windows Firewall group. GroupName is a string. The default value is an empty string. |
In unattended installations, you can use a string for the Group setting, for example, "Remote Desktop." However, to specify a Group in an answer file that applies to multilingual unattended installations, you can reference an indirect string resource stored in the firewallAPI.dll binary. For example, to enable Remote Desktop, use the following:
<Group>@FirewallAPI.dll,-28752</Group>
