how to list, by command line, firewall rules filter by...

Question

Hi all,
I would like to use "netsh advfirewall firewall" commands, to list only some rule

for example, filter by:

only blocked rules
only rules belonging to a certain group name

more, if possible, list only rule having name starting with "blabla", then I guess using wildcards...

thanks!

Answer 1

You can use findstr to filter names but it is simpler with PowerShell

For example, a test with some filters :

Show-NetFirewallRule | where {$_.DisplayName -Like "*Test*" -AND $_.Action -eq 'Block' -AND $_.Direction -eq "Inbound"} | select DisplayName
