Appendix A - Firewall STATEFUL PACKET INSPECTION Refers to an architecture, where the firewall keeps track of packets on each connection traversing all its interfaces and makes sure they are valid. This is in contrast to static packet filtering which only examines a packet based on the information in the packet header. DENIAL OF SERVICE ATTACK Is an incident in which a user or organization is deprived of the services of a resource they would normally expect to have.
Example 1: Filter Name Protocol Policy Source IP Address Source Subnet Mask Source Port Dest. IP Address Dest. Subnet Mask Dest. Port Selected WAN interface : : : : : : : : : : In_Filter1 TCP Allow 210.168.219.45 255.255.0.0 80 NA NA NA br0 This filter will ACCEPT all TCP packets coming from WAN interface “br0” with IP Address/Subnet Mask 210.168.219.45/16 with a source port of 80, irrespective of the destination.
