RE: [FW1] Inbound, Outbound, Eitherbound



Iztok/Keith/Rob -- 

thanks for your replies to my question from this morning. I now think I
understand a little better about in/out/eitherbound. Guess I had it confused
with Network traffic not the TCP/IP stack. Thanks for helping me out! 

Tim

Inbound, outbound, eitherbound is not regarding the "in/out from
local/inside network".

Traversion the TCP/IP stack up is "inbound". Traversing down is
"outbound".
