This problem does not occur when you open the Server Network Utility from SQL Server Enterprise Manager.

MORE INFORMATION
Users must have Administrator privileges on the computer in order to access the Server Network Utility directly. After applying the fix, a user without administrator privileges on the computer is not allowed to access the Server Network Utility directly. Instead, the user receives the following error message:

Your login account does not have the permissions required to run this application.

Consult your system or database administrator to obtain the required permissions.
