how do i know if there is firewall in my LAN ? RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hi everyone,
    At my home LAN there are 2 SQL servers between which i cant make connections. The only reason for me failing to create connection between the 2 SQL servers is supposed to be a firewall existence that blocks data transportation from one machine to the other.
    My questions:
    How do i get to know whether the router upon which my lan is based, contains firewall ?
    How do i know if the antivirus both machines run contain firewall ?
    Assuming there is firewall, how do i make it accept port 1433 data ?
    Hopefuly i expressed myself clear enough given that my comprehension in firewalls and ports is poor.
    Thanks
    ps
