Packet Filtering COMP 423

Packets packets datagram To understand how firewalls work, you must first understand packets. Packets are discrete blocks of data, and are the basic unit of data handled by a network. Also called a datagram. Each packet consist of two parts: the header and the data. The header contains information that is normally only read by computers, such as where the packet is coming from and its destination. The data is the part that end users actually see (the body of an message or a web page).

Packet Filter A hardware or software that is designed to block or allow transmission of packets of information based on criteria such a port, IP address, and protocol. Provide a basis for understanding TCP/IP networks communications. Acts like a ticket-taker in a multiplex movie theatre (admit only those with valid tickets – that is, tickets for a particular film, on a particular day, at a particular time)

Packet-Filtering Devices Routers: these are probably the most common packet filters IptablesTCP/IP Filtering. Operating systems: some OS, like Windows and Linux, have built-in utilities that can filter packets on the TCP/IP stack of the server software. Linux has a kernel-level packet filter called Iptables; Windows has TCP/IP Filtering.

Packet-Filtering Devices Software firewalls: – Enterprise-level Check Point Fire Wall-1 – Personal firewalls ZoneAlarm Sygate Personal Firewall

Anatomy of a Packet

Packet-Filtering Rules Drop all inbound connections; allow only outbound connections on Ports 80 (HTTP), 25 (SMTP), and 21 (FTP). Eliminate packets bound for all ports that should not be available to the Internet, such NetBIOS but allow Internet-related traffic, such as SMTP, to pass. – NetBIOS, Short for Network Basic Input Output System, an API that augments the DOS BIOS by adding special functions for local-area networks (LANs) API, an abbreviation of application program interface, is a set of routines, protocols, and tools for building software applications

Packet-Filtering Rules ICMP Internet Control Management Protocol Filter out any ICMP redirect or echo (ping) messages, which may be used by attackers attempting to locate open ports or host IP address. ICMP is Internet Control Management Protocol, used to transmit diagnostic information about IP transmission Drop all packets that use the IP header source routing feature. – In IP source routing, the originator of a packet can attempt to partially or completely control the path through the network to the destination.
