Unblock port 445 for SMB
Like other requests here, I am trying to get a blocked pro t unblocked for personal use.
Like this post: https://forums.xfinity.com/conversations/email/port-25-unblock-art-of-the-business-as-usual-runaround-and-is-there-anybody-out-there/636861fc92a15b227c29043f, I got the runaround from security, tech support and CSA. In the end I was told it is not possible.
would someone be able to assist and get my port 445 unblocked? I am aware of what port 445 is, what it does, and why it could be bad. But I need it to connect to a Microsoft Azure file share that uses a secure connection. I need to access the file share for work but I’m the only one on my team unable to access it. I am aware that I am responsible for traffic going out over port 445 from my network. I plan to configure my home network to only allow connections over 445 to the azure file share I need to access.

Hello @user_145110, thanks for reaching out for help on our forums! We do not support port 445 for your protection and do not unblock this at all.
