[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [FW1] Re: ICMP Stateful or NOT?
I have tried the supposed trick of setting Allow ICMP to 'Last', then putting in rules to allow outbound echo requests only. This has never worked properly for me on 4.0. The only way I could get echo to work is to expressly allow echo replies inbound, which means that there is no useful 'stateful inspection' of ICMP that I can tell. I considered using Bill's stateful INSPECT code, but in the end decided that allowing echo replies inbound is not much of a risk -- at least if you have non-routable IP addresses. turambar386 Get your FREE Bette Davis e-mail at http://surf.to/bette ____________________________________________________________ Get your own FREE Web and POP E-mail Service in 14 languages at http://www.zzn.com. ================================================================================ To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================================================
