When SEP (firewall portion) is disabled, what things trigger it to automatically re-enable?
Created: 12 Feb 2013 | 8 comments
I have a client that is allowed to disable SEP, as it interferes with some of his work. It keeps reenabling by itself. What events can trigger this?
(I know a reboot will restart SEP, but this is happening without a reboot.)

Does the firewall actually re-enable?
I know in the AV policy there is an option to re-enable after X minutes. I don't think the firewall has this option.

Yes, the firewall.

Under Location-specific Polices click the + sign next to Location-specific Settings
Click on Tasks to the right of Client User Interface Control Settings and select Edit Settings

I've posted the settings in a screenshot below. I believe they are set correctly.
Are you using SNAC ?
Do you have configure any SNAC Policy ?
Thanks In Advance

I'm not using SNAC.
Have a look here:

SEP will reenable Firewall after specific amount of time as set per Client User Interface Settings.
The Client User Interface Settings are not set to re-enable. This holds true for all locations under this group.
