whitepaper It also presents a new packet filtering optimization technique that uses adaptive statistical search trees to utilize important traffic characteristics and minimize the average packet matching time. Packet filtering plays a critical role in the...

whitepaper Current packet filtering techniques exploit the characteristics of the filtering policies, but they do not consider the traffic behavior in optimizing their search data structures. Packet filtering plays a critical role in many of the current high...

whitepaper Unfortunately packet filtering in this fashion can result in significant traffic delays, which is problematic for applications that require strict Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees. Furthermore, as network speeds and capacities continue to...

whitepaper Unfortunately packet filtering in this fashion can result in significant traffic delays, which is problematic for applications that require strict Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees. These critical devices filter traffic by comparing arriving...

whitepaper In addition, most packet classifiers give no specific consideration for optimizing packet rejection, which is important for many filtering devices like firewalls. Packet matching plays a critical role in the performance of many network devices and...

whitepaper Using reliable yet practical techniques for testing new packet filtering algorithms and firewall design implementations from a functionality point of view becomes necessary to assure the required security.
[11 May 2008]
whitepaper However, the development of IETF compliant probes so that they sustain the traffic generated in high speed networks is a current challenge, since communication links operating at 100 Mbps or higher rates require efficient packet filtering and...

whitepaper These control points typically focused on packet filtering via a firewall, a router access control list, or a combination of both. Security policy was implemented by control points that filtered traffic passing between trusted and untrusted networks.
[24 Oct 2007]
whitepaper MSILM started out with a 250-user license for Secure Computing's Sidewinder G2 Firewall, a hybrid solution that addresses both packet-level and application-level filtering. The total solution allows MSILM to secure their perimeter, and provides...

whitepaper Red Hat Enterprise Linux utilizes the iptables system, which is a kernel-level packet-filtering tool. This paper will show how to set up simple forwarding and filtering rules for a firewall appliance.
[02 Jun 2006]
whitepaper Avanade has also configured multiple networks that help provide top-level, unique security with stateful packet filtering for each network. As a result, the company has extended access to 20 percent more geographical locations around the world and...

whitepaper Whether installed as software or embedded in chip hardware, it is suitable for routing, firewall filtering and IP traffic classification. The EffnetEdge Toolkit offers an algorithm-based technology for IP (Internet Protocol) packet processing.
[24 Feb 2004]
whitepaper It provides several useful security features which are lacking in stock UNIX installs, such as the ability to filter traffic, protocol/packet state filtering, and true stateful firewalling. With the advent of TCP wrappers and dedicated firewalling...

whitepaper Another common firewall component is a packet-filtering router. The multiprotocol router has extensive filtering capabilities to limit the type and direction of traffic that passes through it. Firewalls are typically constructed on bastion hosts...

whitepaper Most of these sniffers are detectable, but a few use strong encryption, secure protocols, and/or promiscuous mode packet filtering which make them very hard to detect. Since packet sniffing is, in essence, spying, many states have laws against...

whitepaper Many organizations have installed firewalls behind their Internet-facing routers, and Layer 3/4 packet filtering rules in those routers, as the security method to protect the internal network from external attack.
[24 Feb 2004]
whitepaper The firewall provides filtering at the packet, circuit, and application layer, stateful inspection to examine data crossing the firewall and control of access policy and routing of traffic. This paper describes Microsoft Internet Security and...

whitepaper This made them slow.With an IP/ATM firewall accelerator, cells of the first packet are forwarded to the firewall control processor (FCP), which consults its filtering policies to determine whether to forward, drop or monitor the packet.Forwarded...

whitepaper Web site administrators have used packet filtering in their IP routers to provide basic access control, but often this slows router performance to an unacceptable point and fails to eliminate many common types of DOS attacks.
[24 Feb 2004]
whitepaper Examples of these functions include redirecting traffic to caches, load balancing traffic across multiple firewalls, packet filtering and bandwidth management. In the past few years the World Wide Web has grown from a speculative medium to a robust...
