A thread concerning packet filtering, quite unusual. This is about how firewalls/NAT handle (allow or block) TCP simultaneous-open. It is a...
Hola bellgamin, Its been quite a while since I have tested any firewalls, so I do not believe I should make recommendations/conclusions based on...
If the devices cannot connect to the gateway(router) then they will broadcast, attempting to connect/waiting for a reply. When/if the devices...
I would think that they will add rules for the final product. Does OA allow the saving/exporting/loading of the files/reg rules? I know I...
Have you any more info on the packets? It may just be noise you are seeing (such as broadcasts from the other nodes), and not packets routed...
That, (IMHO), is a good direction for an HIPs. Good to see them adding protection that is actually (IMHO) needed, rather than chasing...
It does have (very) basic network access:- Inbound/outbound-> TCP/UDP/RAWIP-> Remote address-> local/remote ports. Not much different to...
Inbound protection is not just about blocking inbound to closed ports or blocking unsolicited. Inbound protection is also about filtering replies...
Why would you state that? It is strange that most, even on this forum, do not understand the workings of a packet filter firewall. Probably too...
The loopback(localhost) is only intercepted at application(filtering) level. So if you allow an application internet access, you allow it all...
An application blocked from Internet access is also blocked from loopback/localhost. - Stem
Closing all ports will block such as unsolicited inbound connections(which is certainly needed for windows services), but what about inbound...
You can enable full logging on a specific application which will then show the application and IPs it connects to, but yes, there is a need to...
In L`n`S, you can apply IP/port restrictions per application. Just a need to double left click the application (You will probably need to enable...
Normally, you would associate an SPI firewall with the filtering of packet header info, such as protocol(TCP, UDP etc) and IP/port. When filtering...

It depends on what you mean by inbound protection. Most on the forum will state inbound protection is the blocking of unsolicited to closed ports....
Hi Seer, Injoy does have payload filtering(or DPI, as it is described). I did look at the payload filtering in CHX-i 3, but either I did not...
I know the various techniques for spoofing, I use them(or should I say, I do when time available) to test firewalls packet filtering, however, as...
Although problems may not be apparent, such as BSOD, low level network driver conflicts can cause issues, and can actually cause less security....
Now that would be nice. Unfortunately not necessarily. There are some drivers I do not recognize in the list. Examples:- pclndiss protocol...
Could be a driver conflict from a previous firewall/security app installation. Have you had (or do you have) other firewall/security apps...
I have 2.07 running on XP sp2 without issue. @LNSFWUser When you installed 2.07, was the correct network interface selected(options tab)...
If you where thinking of trying to make a living out of a re-incarnation of CHX-i, then that would be a very doubtful reality. Most users now...
