Firewalling your server is a good way to reduce the chances of someone hacking in and damaging your system. To firewall your system:
From Control Panel, double click on the Network Connections icon
Right-click on your internet connection and select properties
Select the Advanced tab
Check the "Protect my computer" checkbox
Click the Settings button
Make sure none of the check boxes in the Services tab are checked.
Add a new service entry for every TCP port which you want to allow through. Do this by clicking on the Add... button and filling in the dialog box. Make sure you enter the name of your computer in the Name box, and you can leave the Internal Port number box empty. By default, AIRA uses the following ports:
50000 WS1
50001 WS2
50002 IntelSend
50010 camera1 live
50012 camera1 historical
50020 camera2 live
50022 camera2 historical
50030 camera3 live
50032 camera3 historical
50040 camera4 live
50042 camera4 historical
50050 camera5 live
50052 camera5 historical
50060 camera6 live
50062 camera6 historical
50070 camera7 live
50072 camera7 historical
50080 camera8 live
50082 camera8 historical
The port list above assumes you are publishing 8 cameras on the AIRA server PC behind the firewall. If you are publishing more cameras on the PC, continue opening ports similar to those above.
