Windows Firewall blocks most communication through unused IP ports. This prevents a server with the HPPP

•
4679/UDP (Client)
•
4680/UDP (Client)
•
5000/TCP (Alarms)
•
5001/TCP (Alarms)
To configure the Windows XP with Service Pack 2 Firewall to make an exception for ports 4679, 4680,
5000, and 5001:
Click Start, select Control Panel, and then double-click Network Connections. The Network Connections
