MS File and printer sharing responds to the queries on TCP ports 139 and 445, and UDP ports 137 and 138. As the controller does not allow udp broadcasts, we need to add the ports 137 & 138 in udp upstream & downstream on the controller.
UDP ports 137 and 138 need to be opened for boht upstream and downstream.
