Stateful Firewall Rules
Contrasted with a stateless firewall that inspects packets in isolation, a stateful firewall provides an
extra layer of security by using state information derived from past communications and other
applications to make dynamic control decisions for new communication attempts.
By inspecting the application protocol data, the AS PIC firewall can intelligently enforce security
policies and allow only the minimal required packet traffic to flow through the firewall.
This driver also lets you configure firewall services with group operations. Consult the following
sections for field definitions on the group operations screen. This configures Stateful Firewall rules.
