How to allow AzureLabel License Server through Windows Firewall (Windows 11)

When using AzureLabel with a Corporate license, client computers connect to the AzureLabel License Server running on the main computer. Windows Firewall may block these connections. This guide explains how to allow the License Server through Windows Firewall.

Note: You normally only need to configure Windows Firewall on the main computer. Windows 11 allows outgoing connections by default, so no firewall changes are usually required on client computers.
