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. Port Control Protocol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Control_Protocol

   v. t. e. Port Control Protocol ( PCP) is a computer networking protocol that allows hosts on IPv4 or IPv6 networks to control how the incoming IPv4 or IPv6 packets are translated and forwarded by an upstream router that performs network address translation (NAT) or packet filtering. By allowing hosts to create explicit port forwarding rules ...

6. Screened subnet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screened_subnet

   In network security a screened subnet refers to the use of one or more logical screening routers as a firewall to define three separate subnets: an external router (sometimes called an access router ), that separates the external network from a perimeter network, and an internal router (sometimes called a choke router) that separates the ...

7. 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 ...

8. 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.

   Using McAfee: Firewalls. Below is information about your McAfee firewall. A firewall is a network security system (which in this case, is software-based) that controls all incoming and outgoing network traffic. It will only allow traffic from other trusted networks. The sections below describe the McAfee Firewall features, instructions on how ...
