Windows Firewall

If you are using the Windows Firewall, you may notice the following behaviors in MAX:

When you update software on a LabVIEW Real-Time target while the Windows Firewall is enabled, a dialog box may prompt you to allow MAX and the NI System Web Server to receive information over the network. Select Unblock this program so that MAX can communicate with your LabVIEW Real-Time target.
