  • 1.  How to control Symantec blocking controls?

    Posted Aug 27, 2014 04:03 PM

    How can I exclude certain communication ports from Symantec blocking? I am runnng trial version of SEP12.1 on Mac 10.9. I need to edit the blocking to allow communication of my software.

    There is no firewall on SEP for Mac. Do you have another software firewall in place? How do you know SEP is blocking communication?

    When certain settings are enabled, the installation of the software fails and cannot proceed. 

    Note: If software installation fails for conditions A, the next time I run installer with same conditions, it does not fail. Then, the installer will fail for conditions B (conditions which previously allowed installation with no problems).

    SEP for Mac only employs AV and IPS, what shows in the logs?

    Logs only have updates, unless I am not understanding what you meant

    well you mention when settings are enabled, the software won't install, what settings are these?

    Also, your post suggests port blocking but there is no firewall in SEP for Mac so I don't know how a software install would be affected by this.

    When "Virus Protection" and "Automaticaly forward information" are enabled and "Network Protection" disabled.

    Another time when everything enabled except "Antivirus detections"

    Something in SEP is interfering with internal ports. I don't know what or how.

    Note: Internal communication using 2 ports: 12316 and 12317
