ABSTRACT:
An improved firewall for providing network security is described. The improved firewall provides for dynamic rule generation, as well using conventional fixed rules. This improvement is provided without significant increase in the processing time required for most packets. Additionally, the improved firewall provides for translation of IP addresses between the firewall and the internal network.
