Re: [FW-1] How to stop FW machine to send nbname from itself?



Thanks... Russell....By adding FW->Any->NBT->Drop with "Install On" set
to "Src." Worked but...out of 4 packets it is dropping 3 packets by that
explicit rule and accepting one packet by rule 0. Is there any I am
missing?

Thanks,

Jignesh

Your issue (aside from the fact that you may want to just kill all NBT
stuff
happening on the firewall) is likely that your policies are being
applied on
the Inbound direction only (policy properties).  Packets originating at
the
firewall are, by definition, outbound, whether going to the Internet or
an
internal interface.

You can take the approach of changing your policy property to
Eitherbound,
or you can add a rule that says something like FW->Any->NBT->Drop with
"Install On" set to "Src."  If you take the latter approach, log the
rule
initially so that you can verify that it is dropping the traffic.  It
should
do the trick.

Obviously, while NBT is the issue you hit this on, what you're seeing
would
actually apply to any service/protocol if the firewall were the source
of
the traffic.  Hope this helps.

Hello:

We have installed FW-1 v.4.1/SP5 on Windows 2000 SP2 at our client
location.
We have AnyàAnyàNBTàDrop rule base to drop nbname, nbtdatagram packets
and
FW is doing so. But FW logs shows that FW machine itself is sending
nbname
packets to internet side. How can I stop this? Is there any performance
issue?

Thanks,

Jignesh
