firewall settings for each network the system might encounter.

Figure 27-34 Many machines need more than one network setting.

To support this, Windows asks you if it should trust a new network when

you first connect. Windows even includes three different firewall settings:

one for Domains, one for Private networks (Home or Work), and one for

Guest or Public networks.

EXAM TIP Expect a scenario question on home vs. work vs. public

network options on the CompTIA A+ 1002 exam. Just remember that you

trust home and work networks, but don’t trust public ones.

Once you’ve picked a network type, you might want to customize the

firewall settings further. If you click the Advanced settings option in the

Windows Defender Firewall applet, you’ll discover a much deeper level of

firewall configuration. In fact, it’s an entirely different tool called Windows

Defender Firewall with Advanced Security (see Figure 27-35). You can also

access it directly through the Administrative Tools in Control Panel.
