See Filter Weight Assignment for more information on filter weight generation.

FWPM_AUTO_WEIGHT_BITS

(60)

Number of bits used for auto-generated filter weights.

FWPM_AUTO_WEIGHT_MAX

(MAXUINT64 >> 4)

Maximum auto-generated filter weight.

FWPM_WEIGHT_RANGE_IKE_EXEMPTIONS

(0xC)

BFE assigns a weight with this range value to IKE and AuthIP filters.

See IKE/AuthIP Exemptions for more information on IKE/AuthIP filters.

FWPM_WEIGHT_RANGE_IPSEC

(0x0)

BFE assigns a weight with this range value to IPsec policy filters.

FWPM_WEIGHT_RANGE_MAX

(MAXUINT64 >> 60)

Maximum allowed filter weight range value.

Note

MAXUINT64 represents the largest possible value of UINT64. The value of this constant is 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.
