Bad choice in NETSH.EXE for configuring IPSec

Posted: 11-01-2006, 10:16 PM
NETSH.EXE does not allow both the actioninbound and actionoutbound to be
"block" in Vista 5728.

The following generates an error message in Vista 5728, but works fine in
Win2k3:

netsh.exe ipsec dynamic add mmpolicy name=temp
netsh.exe ipsec dynamic add rule srcaddr=any dstaddr=any mmpolicy=temp
actioninbound=block actionoutbound=block

This is unfortunate because it is handy to use IPSec for packet filtering.
This seems to be a useless artificial limitation in Vista and breaks
compatibility with Win2k3. I hope it is fixed...
