Glossary inspection engine The FWSM inspects certain application-level protocols to identify the location of embedded addressing information in traffic. This allows NAT to translate these embedded addresses and to update any checksum or other fields that are affected by the translation. Because many protocols open secondary TCP or UDP ports, each application inspection engine also monitors sessions to determine the port numbers for secondary channels. The initial session on a well-known port is used to negotiate dynamically assigned port numbers. The application inspection engine monitors these sessions, identifies the dynamic port assignments, and permits data exchange on these ports for the duration of the specific session. Some of the protocols that the FWSM can inspect are CTIQBE, FTP, H.323, HTTP, MGCP, SMTP, and SNMP. interface The physical connection between a particular network and a FWSM. interface ip_address The IP address of a FWSM network interface. Each interface IP address must be unique. Two or more interfaces must not be given the same IP address or IP addresses that are on the same IP network. interface names Human readable name assigned to a FWSM network interface. The inside interface default name is "inside" and the outside interface default name is "outside." Any perimeter interface default names are "intfn", such as intf2 for the first perimeter interface, intf3 for the second perimeter interface, and so on to the last interface. The numbers in the intf string corresponds to the position of the interface card in the FWSM. You can use the default names or, if you are an experienced user, give each interface a more meaningful name. See also inside, intfn, outside. intfn Any interface, usually beginning with port 2, that connects to a subset network of your design that you can custom name and configure. interface PAT The use of PAT where the PAT IP address is also the IP address of the outside interface. See Dynamic PAT, Static PAT. Internet The global network that uses IP. Not a LAN. See also intranet. intranet Intranetwork. A LAN that uses IP. See also network and Internet. IP Internet Protocol. IP protocols are the most popular nonproprietary protocols because they can be used to communicate across any set of interconnected networks and are equally well suited for LAN and WAN communications. IPS Intrusion Prevention System. An in-line, deep-packet inspection-based solution that helps mitigate a wide range of network attacks. IP address An IP protocol address. A FWSM interface ip_address. IP version 4 addresses are 32 bits in length. This address space is used to designate the network number, optional subnetwork number, and a host number. The 32 bits are grouped into four octets (8 binary bits), represented by 4 decimal numbers separated by periods, or dots. The meaning of each of the four octets is determined by their use in a particular network. IP pool A range of local IP addresses specified by a name, and a range with a starting IP address and an ending address. IP Pools are used by DHCP and VPNs to assign local IP addresses to clients on the inside interface.

inspection engine
The FWSM inspects certain application-level protocols to identify the location of embedded
addressing information in traffic. This allows
NAT
to translate these embedded addresses and to
update any checksum or other fields that are affected by the translation. Because many protocols open
secondary
TCP
or
UDP
ports, each application inspection engine also monitors sessions to determine
the port numbers for secondary channels. The initial session on a well-known port is used to negotiate
dynamically assigned port numbers. The application inspection engine monitors these sessions,
identifies the dynamic port assignments, and permits data exchange on these ports for the duration of
the specific session. Some of the protocols that the FWSM can inspect are
CTIQBE
,
FTP
,
H.323
,
HTTP
,
MGCP
,
SMTP
, and
SNMP
.
interface
The physical connection between a particular network and a FWSM.
interface ip_address
The IP address of a FWSM network interface. Each interface IP address must be unique. Two or more
interfaces must not be given the same IP address or IP addresses that are on the same IP network.
interface names
Human readable name assigned to a FWSM network interface. The inside interface default name is
“inside” and the outside interface default name is “outside.” Any perimeter interface default names
are “intf
n
”, such as intf2 for the first perimeter interface, intf3 for the second perimeter interface, and
so on to the last interface. The numbers in the intf string corresponds to the position of the interface
card in the FWSM. You can use the default names or, if you are an experienced user, give each
interface a more meaningful name. See also
inside
,
intfn
,
outside
.
intf
n
Any interface, usually beginning with port 2, that connects to a subset network of your design that you
can custom name and configure.
interface PAT
The use of
PAT
where the
PAT
IP address is also the IP address of the outside interface. See
Dynamic
PAT
,
Static PAT
.
Internet
The global network that uses
IP
. Not a
LAN
. See also
intranet
.
intranet
Intranetwork. A LAN that uses
IP
. See also
network
and
Internet
.
IP
Internet Protocol. IP protocols are the most popular nonproprietary protocols because they can be used
to communicate across any set of interconnected networks and are equally well suited for
LAN
and
WAN
communications.
IPS
Intrusion Prevention System. An in-line, deep-packet inspection-based solution that helps mitigate a
wide range of network attacks.
IP address
An IP protocol address. A FWSM interface ip_address. IP version 4 addresses are 32 bits in length.
This address space is used to designate the network number, optional subnetwork number, and a host
number. The 32 bits are grouped into four octets (8 binary bits), represented by 4 decimal numbers
separated by periods, or dots. The meaning of each of the four octets is determined by their use in a
particular network.
IP pool
A range of local IP addresses specified by a name, and a range with a starting IP address and an ending
address. IP Pools are used by
DHCP
and
VPN
s to assign local IP addresses to clients on the inside
interface.
