Resolution


Overview

No, It is not possible to block inbound TeamViewer traffic if it is allowed outbound.

 

Detail

Team viewer only makes outbound connections, from both client PC to the TeamViewer Server. There are no direct connections made between the two client PCs. As a result there are no inbound Teamviewer connections to the client PC behind the firewall. A security policy denying the application inbound will have no effect.
