Some parameters are used to specify the conditions that must be matched for the rule to apply, such as the LocalAddress and RemoteAddress parameters. Other parameters specify the way that the connection should be secured, like the Authentication and Encryption parameters. Rules that already exist can be managed with the Get-NetFirewallRule and Set-NetFirewallRule cmdlets.
Filter objects, such as NetFirewallAddressFilter or NetFirewallApplicationFilter, are created with each firewall rule. The filter objects and rules are always one-to-one and are managed automatically.

Set-NetFirewallProfile -All -Enabled True

Set-NetFirewallProfile -Profile Public -Enabled True
