Enable firewall traversal from remote access host

Supported on: Microsoft Windows 7 or later

Registry

HKLM Software\Policies\Google\Chrome

HKCU Software\Policies\Google\Chrome

Value name: RemoteAccessHostFirewallTraversal

Enabled: RemoteAccessHostFirewallTraversal = 1

Disabled: RemoteAccessHostFirewallTraversal = 0

Description

Setting the policy to Enabled or leaving it unset allows the usage of STUN servers, letting remote clients discover and connect to this machine, even if separated by a firewall. Setting the policy to Disabled when outgoing UDP connections are filtered by the firewall means the machine only allows connections from client machines within the local network.
