RE: Stateful inspection

Hi David,
 
Yes, when you use publishing rules the connection state is tracked. Same
with Protocol rules.

        Bugger ! ...as they would say in England. This seriously
degrades the intelligence of

        ISA compared to other solutions. Could we only do stateful on at
NAT DMZ I believe this

        Would be a much more attractive firewall. I`m inclined to to
take this as an authorative

        Statement, but will of course do futher reseach :-)

        Hi David,

         

        No.

         

        That's why packet filters and trihomed DMZ (including public
address DMZs), suck. :-)

         

        HTH,

                Subject: [isalist] Stateful inspection

                http://www.ISAserver.org

                 Lately, I`ve been asked to make a comparison between
ISA and other firewalls, such as PIX and

                FW1. One thing that`s been nagging me, is the ability to
have a DMZ and do stateful inspection on

                Traffic there. I`m aware that ISA does in fact do
stateful inspection on traffic outbound traffic and

                Traffic initiated by published server rules. My question
is this:

                 

                Does ISA perform stateful inspection on traffic to a DMZ
zone via packet filters ?

                 

                The reason this is not obvious is the 3 types of traffic
configurable in a packet filter; Inbound, 

                Outbound and both. I`ve noticed that for example a
filter like TCP 3389 inbound would allow

                Terminal services to be used on the ISA machine - but a
typical oldfashined filtering firewall

                Would require a filter allowing both Inbound AND
outbound access. Stateful inspection would

                Account for this. I`ve found no literature to back this
up though...any thoughts ?

                 

                Regards,

                 

                David Elmquist
