create Firebox port scan exception for Spiceworks server

my firebox blocked my spiceworks server's IP because it did a port scan. How can I make an exception, or policy so the firebox won't block the SW host?

I think you need to go into the firebox config and disable the blocking.  It should be in the unhandled port section I believe. There should be a checkbox for the automatically block the unhandled port access.  That's what I remember, I don't have access to see the actual setting location.  You can re-enable the feature/setting later.

I'm familiar with that setting, but I'd like to limit that exception to this one, trusted host. I'll keep looking through policy settings...

I did something a little bit different than what you suggested, but that was the same track.
