Only allow certain servers or windows machines to show on network (Network Discovery) across VLANS

-

i have tested network discovery on our servers enabling computer browser service on pdc master browser , change firewall rules in gpo. shows computers across vlans. possible show server printserver or set of servers in vlan. security between each department rather not have every system showing in network.

our network

two dc's 2 dns, both servers 2008 rc2 domain @ 2008 level. there no xp machines in network , 200 machines running windows 7 or windows 8.

thank you

hi,

even servers show on network, users still not able access them without permission. in other hand, if not share files permission, users still able access servers though not displayed on network (need computer name or ip address of course).

so permission still better way solve issue.

and if disable network discovery needed, please refer thread:
