Windows Vista may disconnect client communications that use TCP port 1723
Consider the following scenario:
- You have a Windows Vista-based computer that is running Windows Firewall.
- A client application tries to connect through TCP port 1723.
In this scenario, Windows Vista may disconnect communications to the client. The following are examples of such client applications:
- FTP applications that connect through port 1723
- P2P applications that connect through port 1723
- Multifunction printers on which scanning or faxing options use port 1723 for communications
Note: In this situation, no error message is displayed in Windows. However, an error is displayed on the printer.
