Inactive TS Port and performance issues

Hi,

We're having a lot of problems regarding performance on our Windows Server 2012 R2.

When loggin in it stays on 'Applying Group Policy Printers' for 5 - 10 minutes. This is on all of our Terminal Servers, which are also Windows Server 2012 R2.

I've Google'd and found out that 'Inactive TS Ports' could have something to do with this.

We have on our DC 321 inactive ports, on each TS we have 70 - 90 inactive ports.

I've read that those ports should be deleted after a TS restart. All of our TS restart daily so that couldn't be it. (Maybe it's disabled ?)

My main question is:

Can we delete the register keys that are including these inactive ports without any possible problems? And how can we prevent these ports from being made in the future?

I would love to hear your ideas. Please let me know.

Best regards,

Paul

Port is being blocked

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community forums.

• Are you aware of any changes that happened on the computer prior to this issue?
  

Upon researching, this seems like an issue due to the port scan. You may want to try the steps listed below and check if it works.

• Login to your Netgear
  NX6200 Extender GUI.
  
• Click on Advanced tab and choose
  WAN Setup.
  
• Check the box for Disable Port Scan and DoS Protection.
  
• Allow it to update and check if the port is still being blocked.
  

However, if the issue persists, I suggest you to post your query in the
TechNet Forums, where we have support professionals
equipped with knowledge on port forwarding.
