allow multicasts over Internet Connection Firewall?

J

Jud

I have Windows XP Pro, and would like to use the Internet
Connection Firewall option, but Direcway, my broadband
provider, has digitial music available that requires any
firewall to allow multicasts. Does anyone know how to
enable that under ICF, short of not using ICF?

Thanks,

Jud

Are the multicast packets communicated over a static port? If so, you may
add a port mapping to the firewall (ICF) and be able to allow the multicast
traffic through.
