How to enable network protection in Windows Server 2019

[KENJISHIRAKI]

[Enter feedback here] I ran the command "Set-MpPreference -EnableNetworkProtection Enabled" on Windows Server 2019 to enable network protection. However, when I accessed the demo site (https://smartscreentestratings2.net ) it was not blocked. all the requirements for real-time protection, cloud-delivered protection, etc. are met.

Network protection also worked on Windows Server 2019 by running the following additional commands Set-MpPreference -AllowNetworkProtectionOnWinServer 1 Set-MpPreference -AllowNetworkProtectionDownLevel 1 Set-MpPreference -AllowDatagramProcessingOnWinServer 1 Therefore, could you please add that the following command also needs to be executed in Server OS?
