Hi Team, 
When i try to install Rabbitmq server 3.12.0 and Erlang 25.3 on windows 10 getting the attached popup and after allowing it is been added in the firewall inbound rule.

if i try to install the same version of RabbitMQ and Erlang in windows2022, this Popup is not coming and that firewall rule is also not added.

Could you please clarify why firewall rule is added only for windows10

Thanks in advance

Thanks & Regards,
Vimala M

Hello,

The RabbitMQ installer does NOT modify Windows Firewall rules at all. It must be due to how each of your environments are configured.

If you would like to automate the creation of firewall rules for RabbitMQ (erl.exe / werl.exe and epmd.exe), please see the following PowerShell scripts:
