Example 2
PS C:\>Set-NetFirewallProfile -DefaultInboundAction Block -DefaultOutboundAction Allow –NotifyOnListen True -AllowUnicastResponseToMulticast True –LogFileName %System
Root%\System32\LogFiles\Firewall\pfirewall.log
This example sets the default inbound and outbound actions, specifies protected network connections, allows notifications to be displayed to the user when a program i
s blocked from receiving inbound connections. This cmdlet allows unicast response to multi-cast or broadcast network traffic, and specifies logging settings for troub

Example 4
PS C:\>$nfProfile = Get-NetFirewallProfile –Name Private –PolicyStore corp.contoso.com/gpo_name
PS C:\>Set-NetFirewallProfile –AllowUnicastResponseToMulticast True –InputObject $nfProfile
This cmdlet can be run using only the pipeline.
PS C:\>Get-NetFirewallProfile –Name Private –PolicyStore corp.contoso.com/gpo_name | Set-NetFirewallProfile –AllowUnicastResponseToMulticast True
This example modifies the private profile associated with a GPO.
Example 5
PS C:\>$nfProfile = Get-NetFirewallRule –DisplayName "Unicast Rule" | Get-NetFirewallProfile
PS C:\>Set-NetFirewallProfile –AllowUnicastResponseToMulticast True –InputObject $nfProfile
This cmdlet can be run using only the pipeline.
PS C:\>Get-NetFirewallRule –DisplayName "Unicast Rule" | Get-NetFirewallProfile | Set-NetFirewallProfile –AllowUnicastResponseToMulticast True
This example modifies the profiles associated with a firewall rule.
