2. Application-level gateway - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application-level_gateway

   An application-level gateway ( ALG, also known as application layer gateway, application gateway, application proxy, or application-level proxy) is a security component that augments a firewall or NAT employed in a mobile network. [1] [2] It allows customized NAT traversal filters to be plugged into the gateway to support address and port ...

3. NAT traversal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NAT_traversal

   NAT traversal. Network address translation traversal is a computer networking technique of establishing and maintaining Internet Protocol connections across gateways that implement network address translation (NAT). NAT traversal techniques are required for many network applications, such as peer-to-peer file sharing and voice over IP. [1]

4. Network address translation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_address_translation

   Application Layer Gateway (ALG) software or hardware may correct these problems. An ALG software module running on a NAT firewall device updates any payload data made invalid by address translation. ALGs need to understand the higher-layer protocol that they need to fix, and so each protocol with this problem requires a separate ALG.

5. Stateful firewall - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stateful_firewall

   In computing, a stateful firewall is a network-based firewall that individually tracks sessions of network connections traversing it. Stateful packet inspection, also referred to as dynamic packet filtering, [1] is a security feature often used in non-commercial and business networks.

6. Application firewall - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_firewall

   Application firewall. An application firewall is a form of firewall that controls input/output or system calls of an application or service. It operates by monitoring and blocking communications based on a configured policy, generally with predefined rule sets to choose from. The two primary categories of application firewalls are network-based ...

7. DMZ (computing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DMZ_(computing)

   DMZ (computing) In computer security, a DMZ or demilitarized zone (sometimes referred to as a perimeter network or screened subnet) is a physical or logical subnetwork that contains and exposes an organization's external-facing services to an untrusted, usually larger, network such as the Internet. The purpose of a DMZ is to add an additional ...

8. Port forwarding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_forwarding

   Port forwarding via NAT router. In computer networking, port forwarding or port mapping is an application of network address translation (NAT) that redirects a communication request from one address and port number combination to another while the packets are traversing a network gateway, such as a router or firewall.

9. IPv6 transition mechanism - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_transition_mechanism

   NAPT-PT. v. t. e. An IPv6 transition mechanism is a technology that facilitates the transitioning of the Internet from the Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) infrastructure in use since 1983 to the successor addressing and routing system of Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6). As IPv4 and IPv6 networks are not directly interoperable, transition ...
