how to Enable these Windows Firewall rules using powershell?












2















I have a few servers where I see a blue question mark on the sql server service, as per the picture below.



enter image description here



This is the solution:




Enabling these Windows Firewall rules did the trick for me



Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI-In)



Windows Management
Instrumentation (DCOM-In)




Is there a way I could achieve this via powershell?

          You would use the Enable-NetFirewallRule cmdlet:



          Enable-NetFirewallRule -Name "WMI-WINMGMT-In-TCP", "WMI-RPCSS-In-TCP"


          In order to find the relevant rule names (in order to enable it), you can search existing firewall rules by name by using the Get-NetFirewallRule cmdlet, for example:



          Get-NetFirewallRule -Name "*WMI*"


          This uses wildcards to final all the rules that contain "WMI" as an example.

          • Small note, you can shortcut the command by providing both names together. So Enable-NetFirewallRule -Name 'WMI-WINMGMT-In-TCP','WMI-RPCSS-In-TCP' would have the same effect.

          • @ShawnMelton Thanks! I don't use PowerShell super often these days, and always forget exactly what syntax to use for passing lists like that. So I just default to multiple commands =) I've updated the answer.

          • Oh, it works either way. Some prefer to use multiple for readability when they are just glancing....as long as it gets the job done.
