I'm running Symantec Endpoint Protection 11 and I'm hoping to be able to toggle a simple firewall rule with a script. If I can do it from the command line that would be preferred.

It's unclear to me what Symantec Endpoint Protection has to do w/ your question, so please let me know if I'm missing something.
In terms of manipulating the Windows 7 Advanced Firewall from the command line I believe the
netsh advfirewall
command is what you're looking for. Read up on the syntax at Microsoft's site and play around with it a bit and I think you'll find it fairly intuitive.If you're looking at making changes to firewall rules on clients in an Active Directory domain environment you'd have a better time of it using Group Policy instead of a command-line script.
