My organization is looking to enable the firewall but allow AirPlay, Remote Desktop. Has anyone successfully created a Config Profile that would allow this? I can see some options when I'm in the System Settings -> Network -> Firewall pref panel but those options aren't available in the config profile.

Not sure about ARD, but we have the following which allows AirPlay and AirDrop to work:

I *think* iTunes was AirPlay and com.apple.sharingd was AirDrop but I'd have to double-check.

I used Profile Creator to create a Profile with the following settings. Uploaded it to Jamf Pro, works fine for us:

I created a config profile. I can see it on a scoped machine. I enabled stealth mode but it's still responding to pings. Anyway to see if the profile is actually working? I don't see anything in Console and I can't check it from the terminal.

I'd be checking the Firewall settings on the test device and looking at the Config Profile that got pushed.
