svchost.exe is on the enable list. I can't actually find where this is blocked?

How do I add an exception for port 500 udp6 for this process?

Go to the service tab, and allow the service. Allowing svchost doesn't automatically allow every service... You also don't need to allow svchost to allow services.
You can add a rule, and set for a specific app, and select the port...

Thanks, I can't find svchost.exe in the services tab?

Svchost is an app hosts all services.
You're looking for a specific service in the services tab.

Thanks, I couldn't decipher what service it is based on the above log entry.

Any pointers on how I would go about determining that?

Thanks again

I do not know. What is wrong that you want to allow this service?

Unable to connect to friends in xbox (windows) games

Switching back to Windows firewall solves the issue, but I'd rather address it using simple wall.

All those services are titled "gaming" and "xbl" you must also enable the individual packages/apps and enable the settings in the blocklist.

Thanks, this looks like an isakmp call?

I guess once the right packages / apps / services are enabled isakmp and other calls will work as expected?

"Microsoft Corporation\ET Default Block All"

This filter is not from SW, this is Windows Defender filter.

Thanks, is it possible to see this rule within SW or do I need to elsewhere to locate and disable?

Use WF.msc, SW is not mean with this.

Thank you!
