About Norton Firewall Diagnosis
There may be times when firewall may block the
network traffic that you want to allow based on its
configuration settings. In such cases, you may have
issues in accessing the Internet, the Network, or
another computer to perform tasks such as sharing
resources.
When you experience network connection problems,
Norton Firewall acts quickly in identifying the cause
of failure and provides its diagnosis. Norton Internet
Security displays the Firewall Diagnostics Wizard
when you encounter network connection problems.
w
Norton Firewall Diagnosis is available only in Windows
7 and Windows 8.
The Wizard contains the problem diagnosis report that
is unique for different cases of network blocks. For
instance, a network block can occur in any of the
following cases:
1 The one click option to stop all network traffic is
active
1 The uncommon protocol that is handling the traffic
is blocked
1 The currently active firewall rule is conditioned to
block the traffic that you want to allow
1 The traffic has violated the process policy of the
firewall
