Hi. Im wondering, how does FW-1 handle open connections to a box, when you close any inbound traffic to that box, are any open connections immediately cut off, or are they allowed to finnish their traffic? Example, say we have a box 1.2.3.4, listening for traffic on port 1, and connections remain open for an avarge of 60 seconds. 1) connection #1 is opened 2) firewall gets closed on port 1 to 1.2.3.4 3) any new inbound connections are obviously refused 4) the answer for connection #1 comes back In this case, what would happen to #1?
