• Any IPv4 protocol (user-definable)
• Any IPv4 protocol + layer-4 ports
(user-definable)
• Support for non-IP protocols as
defined by service access point
(SAP)/Ethertype
Layer-7 application support
• Application filter architecture
supports layer-7 protocol inspection
(deep packet inspection) for
command and protocol validation,
protocol anomaly detection,
dynamic channel pinholes
and application-layer address
translation. Application filters
include HTTP, FTP, RPC, TFTP,
H.323/H.323 RAS, SMTP, Oracle

Firewall attack detection
and protection
• Generalized zero-day anomaly-
based flood protection with
patent-pending intelligent cache
management protection
• SYN flood protection to specifi-
cally protect inbound servers
(for example, Web servers)
from inbound traffic
• Transmission Control Protocol
(TCP) SYN floods
• Strict TCP validation to ensure
TCP session state enforcement,
validation of sequence and
acknowledgement numbers
• Rejection of bad TCP flag
combinations
• Initial sequence number (ISN)
rewriting for weak TCP stack
implementations
• Fragment flood protection with
robust fragment reassembly
ensures no partial or overlapping
fragments are transmitted
• Generalized IP packet validation
including detection of malformed
packets
• DoS mitigation for over 190 DoS
attacks, including ping of death,
land attack, tear drop attack, etc.
• Drops bad IP options as well as
source route options
• Connection rate limits to minimize
effects of new attacks
QoS/bandwidth management
• Classified by physical port, virtual
firewall, firewall rule, session
bandwidth guarantees – Into and
out of virtual firewall, allocated in
bits/second
• Bandwidth limits – Into and out
of virtual firewall, allocated in
bits/second, packets/session,
sessions/second
• Type of service (ToS)/differentiated
services (DiffServ) marking and
matching
• Integrated with application-layer
filters
Content security
• HTTP filter keyword support
integrated with HTTP
• Application filter
• Basic content filtering with
configurable whitelist/blacklist
and content keyword matching
• URL redirection for blacklist sites
• Rules-based routing feature for
HTTP, SMTP and FTP features
(Alcatel-Lucent SMS R 9.2 or later)
¬ Interoperates with all third-party
antivirus, antispam, and content
filtering systems
¬ Redirects only protocol-specific
packets to third-party systems
performing antivirus, antispam,
and content filtering services
