RE: [FW1] Where is the packet evaluated?



Packets don't originate on any NIC.
They are originated by the application and the underlying tcp/ip stack.
Packets that originate from the local firewall system are always evaluated
as outbound,
when they leave the system.

Subject: [FW1] Where is the packet evaluated?





If a packet originates on one FW NIC, and 
has as destination a host hanging off one
of the other FW NICs, where will this packet be evaluated?

Is it Inbound on the originating NIC, or is it evaluated as
Outbound on the other NIC?
Policy properties are set to Eitherbound.

Cheers,
Anders RM :)
