Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Create inbound rule for port 3389 → Allow connection → Select profiles → Name it
Why this is correct
This is the correct order because the Windows Firewall wizard proceeds logically: you first create the rule specifying the port, then choose to allow the connection, then select which profiles apply, and finally give the rule a name.
- ✗
Create inbound rule for port 3389 → Select profiles → Allow connection → Name it
Why it's wrong here
This order is incorrect because the profiles are selected after the action (allow or block) is chosen in the wizard, not before.
- ✗
Allow connection → Create inbound rule for port 3389 → Select profiles → Name it
Why it's wrong here
This order is incorrect because you cannot specify the action (allow) before you have created the rule and defined what traffic it applies to.
- ✗
Name it → Create inbound rule for port 3389 → Allow connection → Select profiles
Why it's wrong here
This order is incorrect because naming the rule is the final step in the wizard, after all other configuration is complete.
