That's because it was designed as a layer 2 firwall and cannot do any routing. -----Original Message----- From: Mailing list for discussion of Firewall-1 [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of Nick Ellenden Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2001 10:06 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [FW-1] Stealth Mode Hi, The Lucent Managed Firewall's default installation mode makes it Stealthy, it doesn't even have an IP address.

If so the answer is a definitive NO for FW-1 2000, i don't think it will be supported on NG too. It's a product limitation not an O/S or hardware one because Computer Associate eTrust firewall can do it even on Windows NT 4.0. If you mean than it doesn't respond to any unwanted request so outsider don't know it exist it's in theory a possibility by setting correctly your rules but in practice it's very hard to not link some hint of it's presence, if you use Security Server it's even difficult not to have it advise it is a CheckPoint FW-1 firewall...
