I'm wondering where to find detailed information regarding the Microsoft Advanced Windows Firewall command line settings. For instance, from reading a couple technet articles I've learned that I can run the following:

netsh advfirewall firewall set rule group=”File and Printer Sharing” new enable=Yes

The bit about 'group="File and Printer Sharing"' is the part I'm having trouble finding documentation for.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. And, if possible, I'd rather a pointer to the docs than a simple listing of group names.
