Description

When IfW-WindowsFirewall is set to 0 during installation (“Open Windows Firewall for incoming Icinga connections”), provide an option to restrict the Windows Firewall rule for the local port so that inbound connections are only allowed from the configured upstream servers: IfW-CAServer, IfW-ParentAddress, and IfW-ParentNodes.

Research direction

Start by tracing the installation handling for IfW-WindowsFirewall and the related IfW-CAServer, IfW-ParentAddress, and IfW-ParentNodes options. Done means an opt-in restriction can create the Windows Firewall rule so inbound local-port connections are limited to the configured upstream servers, while the existing unrestricted behavior remains available.
