We can enable and disable Network Threat Protection from SEPM UI, but we can't do NTP from commad line. So we can't enble NTP by SNAC Host Integrity script when the FW stops.

In some scenario, it can be usefull to temporarily disable the firewall component for a desktop that does not have rights to act on the SEP client configuration. For instance, we may want to disable the firewall while a remote access control is performed on a user desktop.

It seems that the only way to do that is to stop the SMC service, run the remote access control session and restart the SMC service. The downside it that while the SMC service is stopped, the management console cannot update the SEP client...

A command line to disable the firewall component would be a great option and a good feature.

It would need to be lockable

It would need to be lockable so that non-admins cannot do so, or those without the password cannot.
