Installing SQL Server Express from command line to create Firewall exception

Hi,
I am using following command line statement to install SQL server.

HTML

start /wait E:\UnInstall\SQLSERVER\SQLEXPR32And64.EXE /qb username="EZITek" companyname="Ezitek Soft" addlocal=ALL disablenetworkprotocols="2" instancename="CBEServer" SECURITYMODE="SQL" SAPWD="cbeserver123"

I want to add something so that setup also creates Firewall exception for SQL server.
Can there be any possibility?

Thanks

That would be specific to the type of firewall. There are so many types of hardware firewalls & software firewalls from many vendors. If you know the type of firewall, you'll have to read the documentation to determine how to do what you want.

That said, why open up the firewall for SQL Server? Doing that exposes a critical resource to outside interference.
