I'm new to networking. I'm also working on a server that I did NOT set up. Before anyone asks, Yes I've searched for an answer and haven't found anything. If there is an article that would enlighten me... show me the way. Basically, I am using GPO's to restrict internet access by computer not user account. Everyone says use Firewall settings to do this . But when I look up the firewall, it is also a GPO, or so it seems to me. Are they the same just configured differently? I know enough to know that the router itself may have a firewall but right now I"m just concerned with figuring out the Firewall object listed with the GPO's.
