Personal firewalls and router ACLs

Personal firewalls, such as Zone Alarm, block NetBIOS traffic. If a personal firewall or Web-database (WDB) controlled hardware firewall is deployed between the WDB network and the internal network, it must be configured to allow NetBIOS traffic (on port 137) to and from EAServer.

Routers with access control lists (ACLs) may also block NetBIOS traffic. If a WDB-controlled router is running ACLs, it must be configured to allow NetBIOS traffic (on port 137) to and from EAServer.
