Firewall Client : many questions

Hello,

i think about using "Firewall Client" for non-http/https applications (i currently only use the web listener client : internet proxy).

The few things i've read about this subject raised several questions :

- how to centrally control firewall client configuration ? and how to manage groups for multiple configurations, depending on user or workstation ?

- i think i've understood that an unknown application uses the firewall client by default (if it has to reach a non-local destination, of course), and to prevent an application from doing this, the "Disabled" attribute has to be set to "1". is this true ? => can i change this default behavior and work with application whitelist instead of this blacklisting management ?

- from the isa server point of view, does it recognize an application or a protocol ?

- can i use different isa servers as destination depending on the application that is used ?


Thanks for your answers ! (sorry for the double post, i didn't see the ..clients group !)
