Network Security (Firewall) Instructor: Professor Morteza Anvari Student: Xiuxian Chen ID: Term: Spring 2001

Definition of Firewall In non-computer industries, a firewall is a specially designed wall that controls the spreading of a fire. In networking, a firewall could be described as a specially designed device that controls the spreading of a network threat. The most commonly talked about source of network threats is the Internet. A firewall is simply a group of components that collectively form a barrier between two networks.

Types of Firewall Packet-filtering Firewall A packet-filtering firewall is a router or computer running software that has been configured to screen incoming and outgoing packets. A packet- filtering firewall accepts or denies packets based on information contained in the packets' TCP and IP headers. The headers consist of the following: 1).Source address 2). Destination address 3). Application or protocol 4). Source port number 5). Destination port number

Types of Firewall [continued] Packet-filtering Firewall [continued] Before forwarding a packet, the firewall compares the full association against a table containing rules that dictate whether the firewall should deny or permit packets to pass. The primary advantage of using a packet-filtering firewall is that it provides some measure of protection for relatively low cost and causes little to no delay in network performance. It primarily operates only at the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model.

Types of Firewall [continued] Circuit-level Gateway A circuit-level gateway monitors TCP handshaking between packets from trusted clients or servers to untrusted hosts and vice versa to determine whether a requested session is legitimate. To filter packets in this way, a circuit-level gateway relies on data contained in the packet headers for the Internet's TCP session-layer protocol.

Types of Firewall [continued] Circuit-level Gateway [continued] Monitoring Handshaking ---To determine whether a requested session is legitimate. a circuit- level gateway uses a process similar to the following: A trusted client requests a service, and the gateway accepts this request, assuming that the client meets basic filtering criteria. Next, acting on behalf of the client, the gateway opens a connection to the requested untrusted host and then closely monitors the TCP handshaking.

Types of Firewall [continued] Circuit-level Gateway [continued] Pipe Proxies -- After a circuit-level gateway determines that the trusted client and the untrusted host are authorized to participate in a TCP session and verifies the legitimacy of this session, the gateway establishes a connection. From this point on, the circuit-level gateway simply copies and forwards packets back and forth without further filtering them. A circuit-level gateway relies on special applications to perform copy and forward services. These applications are sometimes called pipe (or generic) proxies.

Types of Firewall [continued] Circuit-level Gateway [continued] Seldom Standalone -- Most circuit-level gateways are not stand-alone products but instead are packaged with application-level gateways. Proxy Server Protection. A circuit-level gateway provides one other important security function: It is a proxy server. A proxy server is a firewall that uses a process called address translation to map all of internal IP addresses to one “safe” IP address. This address is associated with the firewall from which all outgoing packets originate.

Types of Firewall [continued] Circuit-level Gateway [continued] Circumventing Circuits. --A circuit-level gateway has one inherently vulnerable characteristic. Once a circuit-level gateway establishes a connection, any application can run across that connection because a circuit-level gateway filters packets only at the session layer of the OSI model.

Types of Firewall [continued] Application-level Gateway An application-level gateway intercepts incoming and outgoing packets, runs proxies that copy and forward information across the gateway, and functions as a proxy server, preventing any direct connection between a trusted server or client and an untrusted host. The proxies are application specific. The proxies can filter packets at the application layer of the OSI model.

Types of Firewall [continued] Application-level Gateway [continued] Application-specific Proxies. --Application- specific proxies accept only packets generated by services they are designed to copy, forward, and filter. Application-level Filtering. --An application-level gateway runs proxies that examine and filter individual packets, rather than simply copying them and blindly forwarding them across the gateway.

Types of Firewall [continued] Stateful Inspection Firewall A stateful inspection firewall combines aspects of a packet-filtering firewall, a circuit-level gateway, and an application-level gateway. Like a packet-filtering firewall, a stateful inspection firewall operates at the network layer of the OSI model, filtering all incoming and outgoing packets based on source and destination IP addresses and port numbers. A stateful inspection firewall also functions as a circuit-level gateway, determining whether the packets in a session are appropriate.

Types of Firewall [continued] Stateful Inspection Firewall [continued] A stateful inspection firewall mimics an application-level gateway: The firewall evaluates the contents of each packet up through the application layer and ensures that these contents match the rules in company's network security policy. A stateful inspection firewall allows a direct connection between a trusted client and an untrusted host. And it relies on algorithms to recognize and process application-layer data. These algorithms compare packets against known bit patterns of authorized packets.

Conclusion The key for building a secure network is to define what security means to you. Once it has been defined, everything it goes on with the network can be evaluated with respect to that policy. Projects and systems can then be broken down into their components, and it becomes much simpler to decide whether what is proposed will conflict with your security policies and practices.
