<title>Enable or block firewall access</title>
<p>Your system should be equipped with a <em>firewall</em> that allows it to
block programs from being accessed by other people on the internet or your
network. This helps to keep your computer secure.</p>
<p>Many applications can use your network connection. For instance, you can
share files or let someone view your desktop remotely when connected to a
network. Depending on how your computer is set up, you may need to adjust the
firewall to allow these services to work as intended.</p>
<p>Each program that provides network services uses a specific <em>network
port</em>. To enable other computers on the network to access a service, you
may need to “open” its assigned port on the firewall:</p>
<steps>
<item>
<p>Go to <gui>Activities</gui> in the top left corner of the screen and
start your firewall application. You may need to install a firewall
manager yourself if you can’t find one (for example, Firestarter or
GUFW).</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Open or disable the port for your network service, depending on
whether you want people to be able to access it or not. Which port you
need to change will <link xref="net-firewall-ports">depend on the
service</link>.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Save or apply the changes, following any additional instructions given
by the firewall tool.</p>
</item>
</steps>
