Hello team.

A change was made to the network, and a new firewall was added to perform a network segmentation. I moved a workstation behind the new firewall. I tried to perform a new scan on the workstation but it is giving me the following error:

RPC Unavailable

When I try to use the Connectiontester tool the information that is displayed is the following for the workstation that is behind the firewall:

Ping: ok
Scanning TCP ports.
135 Open (EPMAP)
139 closet
445 closet

Checking reverse DNS
I need to check the information of the workstation.

Scanning Netbios (UDP)
Could not scan netbios

Yo Enzo - I'm not official support but....  try working with the firewall team to open port 139 for your endpoint you are testing on (only), then retry.  I think WMI + RPC require file and print sharing protocols that communicate over 139.   Or, if they don't want to loosen the rules for your endpoint, have them trace or view the rule/traffic logs for your endpoint and confirm.

Hello Enzo, 
This is most likely caused by your firewall. But there could be a few other causes. 

These are outlined in the KB article below along with possible solutions.
