Using NAT Rules    388  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  • Static NAT is configured for a network object (for information, see Using Network Objects on page 185) • NAT rules are received from the Service Center Implicitly defined NAT rules can only be edited or deleted indirectly. For example, in order to remove a NAT rule created when a certain network object was defined, you must modify the relevant network object. The Address Translation page displays both custom NAT rules and implicitly defined NAT rules, and it allows you to create, edit, and delete custom NAT rules.  How Does Hide NAT Work? In Hide NAT, traffic to and from the internal networks traverses an enforcement module. When a packet from an internal network passes through the gateway, the source IP address is changed to the hiding IP address, and the source port is changed to a dynamically assigned port that uniquely identifies the connection. The relationship between the dynamically assigned port and the internal IP address is recorded in the gateway’s state tables. When reply packets arrive, the enforcement module uses the destination port to determine to which connection the packet belongs, and then adjusts the destination port and IP address accordingly.

Using the EAP Authenticator    394  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  A confirmation message appears. b. Click OK. The rule is deleted.  Using the EAP Authenticator Wi-Fi Protected Access Enterprise (WPA-Enterprise) and 802.1x are Network Access Control (NAC) protocols that can be used to authenticate users connecting to the Check Point Safe@Office appliance. Both WPA-Enterprise and 802.1x can be used to control access to the wireless network; however, WPA-Enterprise has the added capability of encrypting transmitted data, and 802.1x can be used to secure connections to the Safe@Office appliance's LAN and DMZ ports as well.  Traditionally, WPA-Enterprise and 802.1x require installing an external Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server. When a user tries to authenticate using 802.1x or WPA-Enterprise, the Safe@Office appliance sends the entered user credentials to the RADIUS server. The server then checks whether the RADIUS database contains a matching set of credentials. If so, then the user is logged in.  While purchasing and configuring a RADIUS server may pose little challenge for a large enterprise, such a solution may be costly and complex, and may therefore be unsuitable for smaller networks. In such cases, it is recommended to configure the Safe@Office appliance's built-in Extended Authentication Protocol (EAP) authenticator, which allows using the local user database, enabling the use of WPA-Enterprise or 802.1x without an external RADIUS server.

SmartDefense Categories    420  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide    Denial of Service Denial of Service (DoS) attacks are aimed at overwhelming the target with spurious data, to the point where it is no longer able to respond to legitimate service requests.  This category includes the following attacks: • DDoS Attack on page 425 • LAND on page 422 • Non-TCP Flooding on page 423 • Ping of Death on page 421 • Teardrop on page 420  Teardrop In a Teardrop attack, the attacker sends two IP fragments, the latter entirely contained within the former. This causes some computers to allocate too much memory and crash. You can configure how Teardrop attacks should be handled.
 SmartDefense Categories  Chapter 14: Using SmartDefense  421  Table 69: Teardrop Fields In this field…  Do this… Action  Specify what action to take when a Teardrop attack occurs, by selecting one of the following: • Block. Block the attack. This is the default.  • None. No action.  Track  Specify whether to log Teardrop attacks, by selecting one of the following: • Log. Log the attack. This is the default.  • None. Do not log the attack.     Ping of Death In a Ping of Death attack, the attacker sends a fragmented PING request that exceeds the maximum IP packet size (64KB). Some operating systems are unable to handle such requests and crash. You can configure how Ping of Death attacks should be handled.
SmartDefense Categories    422  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  Table 70: Ping of Death Fields In this field…  Do this… Action  Specify what action to take when a Ping of Death attack occurs, by selecting one of the following: • Block.

This is the default.  • None. Do not log the attack.    LAND In a LAND attack, the attacker sends a SYN packet, in which the source address and port are the same as the destination (the victim computer). The victim computer then tries to reply to itself and either reboots or crashes.  You can configure how LAND attacks should be handled.
 SmartDefense Categories  Chapter 14: Using SmartDefense  423  Table 71: LAND Fields In this field…  Do this… Action  Specify what action to take when a LAND attack occurs, by selecting one of the following: • Block. Block the attack. This is the default.  • None. No action.  Track  Specify whether to log LAND attacks, by selecting one of the following: • Log. Log the attack. This is the default.  • None. Do not log the attack.    Non-TCP Flooding Advanced firewalls maintain state information about connections in a State table. In Non-TCP Flooding attacks, the attacker sends high volumes of non-TCP traffic. Since such traffic is connectionless, the related state information cannot be cleared or reset, and the firewall State table is quickly filled up. This prevents the firewall from accepting new connections and results in a Denial of Service (DoS).  You can protect against Non-TCP Flooding attacks by limiting the percentage of state table capacity used for non-TCP connections.
SmartDefense Categories    424  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  Table 72: Non-TCP Flooding Fields In this field…  Do this… Action  Specify what action to take when the percentage of state table capacity used for non-TCP connections reaches the Max. percent non TCP traffic threshold.

Percent Non-TCP Traffic threshold, by selecting one of the following: • Log. Log the connections.  • None. Do not log the connections. This is the default.  Max. Percent Non-TCP Traffic Type the maximum percentage of state table capacity allowed for non-TCP connections.  The default value is 10%.
 SmartDefense Categories  Chapter 14: Using SmartDefense  425  DDoS Attack In a distributed denial-of-service attack (DDoS attack), the attacker directs multiple hosts in a coordinated attack on a victim computer or network. The attacking hosts send large amounts of spurious data to the victim, so that the victim is no longer able to respond to legitimate service requests. You can configure how DDoS attacks should be handled.   Table 73: Distributed Denial of Service Fields In this field…  Do this… Action  Specify what action to take when a DDoS attack occurs, by selecting one of the following: • Block. Block the attack. This is the default.  • None. No action.  Track  Specify whether to log DDoS attacks, by selecting one of the following: • Log. Log the attack. This is the default.  • None. Do not log the attack.
SmartDefense Categories    426  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  IP and ICMP This category allows you to enable various IP and ICMP protocol tests, and to configure various protections against IP and ICMP-related attacks. It includes the following: • Checksum Verification on page 436 • Cisco IOS DOS on page 433 • IP Fragments on page 429 • Max Ping Size on page 428 • Network Quota on page 431 • Null Payload on page 435 • Packet Sanity on page 426 • Welchia on page 432 Packet Sanity Packet Sanity performs several Layer 3 and Layer 4 sanity checks. These include verifying packet size, UDP and TCP header lengths, dropping IP options, and verifying the TCP flags.  You can configure whether logs should be issued for offending packets.
 SmartDefense Categories  Chapter 14: Using SmartDefense  427  Table 74: Packet Sanity Fields  In this field…  Do this… Action  Specify what action to take when a packet fails a sanity test, by selecting one of the following: • Block. Block the packet. This is the default.  • None. No action.  Track  Specify whether to issue logs for packets that fail the packet sanity tests, by selecting one of the following: • Log. Issue logs. This is the default.  • None. Do not issue logs.  Disable relaxed UDP length verification The UDP length verification sanity check measures the UDP header length and compares it to the UDP header length specified in the UDP header. If the two values differ, the packet may be corrupted.  However, since different applications may measure UDP header length differently, the Safe@Office appliance relaxes the UDP length verification sanity check by default, performing the check but not dropping offending packets. This is called relaxed UDP length verification.  Specify whether the Safe@Office appliance should relax the UDP length verification sanity check or not, by selecting one of the following: • True. Disable relaxed UDP length verification. The Safe@Office appliance will drop packets that fail the UDP length verification check. • False. Do not disable relaxed UDP length verification. The Safe@Office appliance will not drop packets that fail the UDP length verification check. This is the default.
SmartDefense Categories    428  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  Max Ping Size PING (ICMP echo request) is a program that uses ICMP protocol to check whether a remote machine is up. A request is sent by the client, and the server responds with a reply echoing the client's data.  An attacker can echo the client with a large amount of data, causing a buffer overflow. You can protect against such attacks by limiting the allowed size for ICMP echo requests.    Table 75: Max Ping Size Fields  In this field…  Do this… Action  Specify what action to take when an ICMP echo response exceeds the Max Ping Size threshold, by selecting one of the following: • Block. Block the request. This is the default.  • None. No action.  Track  Specify whether to log ICMP echo responses that exceed the Max Ping Size threshold, by selecting one of the following: • Log. Log the responses. This is the default.  • None. Do not log the responses.
 SmartDefense Categories  Chapter 14: Using SmartDefense  429  In this field…  Do this… Max Ping Size  Specify the maximum data size for ICMP echo response. The default value is 548.   IP Fragments When an IP packet is too big to be transported by a network link, it is split into several smaller IP packets and transmitted in fragments. To conceal a known attack or exploit, an attacker might imitate this common behavior and break the data section of a single packet into several fragmented packets. Without reassembling the fragments, it is not always possible to detect such an attack. Therefore, the Safe@Office appliance always reassembles all the fragments of a given IP packet, before inspecting it to make sure there are no attacks or exploits in the packet. You can configure how fragmented packets should be handled.
SmartDefense Categories    430  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  Table 76: IP Fragments Fields In this field…  Do this… Forbid IP Fragments  Specify whether all fragmented packets should be dropped, by selecting one of the following: • True. Drop all fragmented packets. • False. No action. This is the default.  Under normal circumstances, it is recommended to leave this field set to False. Setting this field to True may disrupt Internet connectivity, because it does not allow any fragmented packets. Max Number of Incomplete Packets Type the maximum number of fragmented packets allowed. Packets exceeding this threshold will be dropped. The default value is 300. Timeout for Discarding Incomplete Packets When the Safe@Office appliance receives packet fragments, it waits for additional fragments to arrive, so that it can reassemble the packet.   Type the number of seconds to wait before discarding incomplete packets. The default value is 10. Track  Specify whether to log fragmented packets, by selecting one of the following: • Log. Log all fragmented packets.  • None. Do not log the fragmented packets. This is the default.
 SmartDefense Categories  Chapter 14: Using SmartDefense  431  Network Quota An attacker may try to overload a server in your network by establishing a very large number of connections per second. To protect against Denial Of Service (DoS) attacks, Network Quota enforces a limit upon the number of connections per second that are allowed from the same source IP address. You can configure how connections that exceed that limit should be handled.   Table 77: Network Quota Fields In this field…  Do this… Action  Specify what action to take when the number of network connections from the same source reaches the Max. Connections/Second per Source IP threshold. Select one of the following: • Block. Block all new connections from the source. Existing connections will not be blocked. This is the default.  • None. No action.  Track  Specify whether to log connections from a specific source that exceed the Max. Connections/Second per Source IP threshold, by selecting one of the following: • Log.

It includes the following: • Flags on page 443 • Sequence Verifier on page 442 • Small PMTU on page 438 • Strict TCP on page 437 • SynDefender on page 440  Strict TCP Out-of-state TCP packets are SYN-ACK or data packets that arrive out of order, before the TCP SYN packet.    Note: In normal conditions, out-of-state TCP packets can occur after the Safe@Office restarts, since connections which were established prior to the reboot are unknown. This is normal and does not indicate an attack.   Note: Certain SmartDefense protections implicitly apply the Strict TCP protection to relevant connections. In such cases, "TCP Out-of-State" log messages may appear in the Security Log, even though the Strict TCP protection is disabled. You can configure how out-of-state TCP packets should be handled.

SmartDefense Categories    444  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  Port Scan An attacker can perform a port scan to determine whether ports are open and vulnerable to an attack. This is most commonly done by attempting to access a port and waiting for a response. The response indicates whether or not the port is open.  This category includes the following types of port scans: • Host Port Scan. The attacker scans a specific host's ports to determine which of the ports are open. • Sweep Scan. The attacker scans various hosts to determine where a specific port is open.  You can configure how the Safe@Office appliance should react when a port scan is detected.
 SmartDefense Categories  Chapter 14: Using SmartDefense  445  Table 87: Port Scan Fields  In this field…  Do this… Number of ports accessed SmartDefense detects ports scans by measuring the number of ports accessed over a period of time. The number of ports accessed must exceed the Number of ports accessed value, within the number of seconds specified by the In a period of [seconds] value, in order for SmartDefense to consider the activity a scan. Type the minimum number of ports that must be accessed within the In a period of [seconds] period, in order for SmartDefense to detect the activity as a port scan. For example, if this value is 30, and 40 ports are accessed within a specified period of time, SmartDefense will detect the activity as a port scan. For Host Port Scan, the default value is 30. For Sweep Scan, the default value is 50. In a period of [seconds] SmartDefense detects ports scans by measuring the number of ports accessed over a period of time. The number of ports accessed must exceed the Number of ports accessed value, within the number of seconds specified by the In a period of [seconds] value, in order for SmartDefense to consider the activity a scan. Type the maximum number of seconds that can elapse, during which the Number of ports accessed threshold is exceeded, in order for SmartDefense to detect the activity as a port scan. For example, if this value is 20, and the Number of ports accessed threshold is exceeded for 15 seconds, SmartDefense will detect the activity as a port scan. If the threshold is exceeded for 30 seconds, SmartDefense will not detect the activity as a port scan. The default value is 20 seconds.

 Using VStream Antivirus  Chapter 15: Using Antivirus and Antispam Filtering  467    Using VStream Antivirus  The Safe@Office appliance includes VStream Antivirus, an embedded stream-based antivirus engine based on Check Point Stateful Inspection and Application Intelligence technologies, that performs virus scanning at the kernel level.  VStream Antivirus scans files for malicious content on the fly, without downloading the files into intermediate storage. This means minimal added latency and support for unlimited file sizes; and since VStream Antivirus stores only minimal state information per connection, it can scan thousands of connections concurrently. In order to scan archive files on the fly, VStream Antivirus performs real-time decompression and scanning of ZIP, TAR, and GZ archive files, with support for nested archive files.  If you are subscribed to the VStream Antivirus subscription service, VStream Antivirus virus signatures are automatically updated, so that security is always up-to-date, and your network is always protected.  VStream Antivirus Actions When VStream Antivirus detects malicious content, the action it takes depends on the protocol in which the virus was found. See the following table. In each case, VStream Antivirus blocks the file and writes a log to the Event Log. Table 102: VStream Antivirus Actions If a virus if found in this protocol... VStream Antivirus does this...

VStream Antivirus processes policy rules in the order they appear in the Antivirus Policy table, so that rule 1 is applied before rule 2, and so on. This enables you to define exceptions to rules, by placing the exceptions higher up in the Rules table.
Using VStream Antivirus    472  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  For example, if you want to scan all outgoing SMTP traffic, except traffic from a specific IP address, you can create a rule scanning all outgoing SMTP traffic and move the rule down in the Antivirus Policy table. Then create a rule passing SMTP traffic from the desired IP address and move this rule to a higher location in the Antivirus Policy table than the first rule. In the figure below, the general rule is rule number 2, and the exception is rule number 1.   The Safe@Office appliance will process rule 1 first, passing outgoing SMTP traffic from the specified IP address, and only then it will process rule 2, scanning all outgoing SMTP traffic.

 Using VStream Antispam  Chapter 15: Using Antivirus and Antispam Filtering  487  Using VStream Antispam  The Safe@Office appliance includes VStream Antispam, an embedded antispam engine that scans emails for spam. VStream Antispam is composed three antispam engines, each of which can be enabled or disabled separately:  • IP Reputation The IP Reputation engine protects mail servers by checking the email sender’s IP address against an online and constantly updated IP reputation database, before accepting the SMTP email connection. If the IP address belongs to a known spammer, the connection can be immediately blocked at the TCP connection level, thereby stopping the spam before it reaches your mail server.   Note: If you have a mail server in your network, it is recommended to enable the IP Reputation engine as a first line of defense for incoming SMTP connections. When enabled, the IP Reputation engine blocks emails that would otherwise reach your mail server and require extensive analysis by the Content Based Antispam and Block List engines, both of which examine email content and consume network, gateway, and mail server resources. By reducing the amount of emails that require in-depth analysis, the IP Reputation engine helps prevent Denial of Service (DoS) attacks on your gateway or mail server. If you do not have a mail server in your network, there is no need to enable the IP Reputation engine. (If you do enable this engine anyway, it will have no negative effects.) • Block List VStream Antispam allows configuring a list of senders whose emails should be blocked. When an email reaches your mail server, the Block List engine determines whether the sender's email address appears on the list. If so, then VStream Antispam blocks the emails. • Content Based Antispam The Content Based Antispam engine calculates a “spam fingerprint” for each incoming email message. The fingerprint is then sent to a VStream Antispam data center and compared to a constantly updated database of spam messages. The data center returns a "spam score", which is a value in percentages indicating the likelihood
Using VStream Antispam    488  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  that the message is spam. If the spam score exceeds a user-configurable threshold called the “confidence level”, the message can be flagged as spam, or the message can be deleted altogether.   In addition, VStream Antispam allows you to define a Safe Sender List, which consists of senders who are exempt from the Block List and Content Based Antispam engines.  The following table provides a comparison of the VStream Antispam engines. Table 107: Comparison of VStream Antispam Engines  IP Reputation  Content Based Antispam and Block List  Supported Protocols Protects mail servers only, and applies to the SMTP protocol only Protects both mail servers and mail clients, and applies to both POP3 and SMTP protocols Email Scanning Time  Scans the email before accepting the connection Scans the email after accepting the connection Detection Method  Examines the sender's IP address  Content Based Antispam examines the email's content, and Block List examines the email's Sender field. SMTP Error Message  Does not return an SMTP error message to the email sender Returns an SMTP error message to the email sender Mail Rejection Method Resets the TCP connection  Marks the email Subject line, marks the email header, rejects the email (SMTP only), or deletes the email (POP3 only) Server Overload Protection Prevents spammers from overloading gateway and mail server resources Does not prevent spammers from overloading gateway and mail server resources
 Using VStream Antispam  Chapter 15: Using Antivirus and Antispam Filtering  489    Important: In order to use VStream Antispam, your Safe@Office appliance must be subscribed to a Service Center.    How VStream Antispam Works  VStream Antispam works as follows: 1. A TCP connection arrives at the SMTP port (TCP 25) or the POP3 port (TCP 110). 2. The connection is checked against the VStream Antispam policy, to determine whether it should be scanned. 3. If the IP Reputation engine is enabled, and the connection is an SMTP connection: a. VStream Antispam sends the connection's source IP address to a VStream Antispam data center.  b. The VStream Antispam data center checks the reputation of this IP address against a list of known spam sender IP addresses, and then returns a spam score. c. One of the following things happens:  Figure 26: VStream Antispam Flow
Using VStream Antispam    490  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide   If the spam score does not exceed the configured confidence level, the email passes to the next enabled VStream Antispam engine for processing.  If the spam score exceeds the configured confidence level, VStream Antispam determines that the email is spam and handles it as specified by the IP Reputation engine's settings. d. VStream Antispam caches the results of the IP Reputation check. 4. VStream Antispam checks whether the email sender appears on the Safe Sender List. If so, then the email is accepted. 5. If the Block List engine is enabled: a. VStream Antispam examines the email content and compares the sender to the list of blocked senders.  b. One of the following things happens:  If the sender is not on the list of blocked senders, the email passes to the next enabled VStream Antispam engine for processing.  If the sender is on the list of blocked senders, VStream Antispam determines that the email is spam and handles it as specified by the Block List engine's settings. By default, VStream Antispam marks the email subject.  6. If the Content Based Antispam engine is enabled: a. VStream Antispam examines the email content and creates a spam fingerprint. b. VStream Antispam sends the fingerprint to a VStream Antispam data center, where it is checked against an online database of spam messages. c. The VStream Antispam data center returns a spam score. d. One of the following things happens:   If the spam score does not exceed the configured confidence level, the email is accepted.  If the spam score exceeds the configured confidence level, VStream Antispam determines that email is spam and handles it and handles it as specified by the Content Based Antispam engine's settings.
 Using VStream Antispam  Chapter 15: Using Antivirus and Antispam Filtering  491  By default, VStream Antispam marks the email as spam.  7. One of the following things happen: • If the connection is an SMTP connection, the mail server forwards the email to the recipient. • If the connection is a POP3 connection, the email client receives the email.  Header Marking VStream Antispam adds the following headers to each email that is scanned by the Content Based Antispam or Block List engine, but not blocked:  • X-VStream-Spam-Level. Contains an integer between 0 and 100, where 100 indicates the highest likelihood that the email is spam. • X-VStream-Engine. The VStream Antispam engine, (either "Content Based Antispam" or "Block List") • X-Spam-Level. Contains one to five asterisks, where five asterisks indicates the highest likelihood that the email is spam. • X-Spam-Flag. Contains YES if the email is deemed to be spam, according to the currently configured thresholds. For example: X-VStream-Spam-Level: 81% X-VStream-Engine: Content Based Antispam X-Spam-Level: *** X-Spam-Flag: YES If your email client allows defining rules based on message headers, you can create rules specifying that emails with certain headers should be moved to specific folders. For example, you can configure your email client to move all emails with the X-Spam-Flag: YES header directly to a "Spam Email" folder.
Using VStream Antispam    492  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  Default Antispam Policy The VStream Antispam default policy includes the following rules:  • All incoming SMTP connections are scanned, unless they originate from VPN. This protects mail servers in your network. • All outgoing POP3 connections are scanned. This protects mail clients in your network. You can easily override the default antispam policy, for example to exclude certain addresses or networks from spam scanning, by creating user-defined rules. For further information, see Configuring the VStream Antispam Policy on page 510.

Using VStream Antispam    510  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  Configuring the VStream Antispam Policy  VStream Antispam includes a flexible mechanism that allows the user to define exactly which emails should be scanned for spam and which should be considered safe, by specifying the protocol, and the source and destination IP addresses.  VStream Antispam processes policy rules in the order they appear in the Antispam Policy table, so that rule 1 is applied before rule 2, and so on. This enables you to define exceptions to rules, by placing the exceptions higher up in the Rules table.  For example, if you want to scan all outgoing SMTP traffic, except traffic from a specific IP address, you can create a rule scanning all outgoing SMTP traffic and move the rule down in the Antispam Policy table. Then create a rule passing SMTP traffic from the desired IP address and move this rule to a higher location in the Antispam Policy table than the first rule. In the figure below, the general rule is rule number 2, and the exception is rule number 1.
 Using VStream Antispam  Chapter 15: Using Antivirus and Antispam Filtering  511  The Safe@Office appliance will process rule 1 first, passing outgoing SMTP traffic from the specified IP address, and only then it will process rule 2, scanning all outgoing SMTP traffic.

 Overview  Chapter 16: Using Web Content Filtering  527  Chapter 16 This chapter explains how to use Web content filtering. This chapter includes the following topics: Overview ..................................................................................................527 Using Web Rules......................................................................................529 Using Web Filtering.................................................................................537 Customizing the Access Denied Page ......................................................543   Overview You can allow or block users from accessing Web content, by configuring Web rules and/or the Web Filtering service. The following table describes the main differences between Web rules and the Web Filtering service: Table 115: Comparison of Web Content Filtering Methods  Web Rules  Web Filtering Filtering Action Web rules allow and block specific URLs. The Web Filtering service is category based; that is, it filters Web sites based on the category to which they belong. Point of Enforcement  HTTP requests are analyzed in the gateway, by comparing each request against a list of rules. HTTP requests are analyzed in the gateway, by extracting each request's URL and then sending the URL to the Service Center, to determine to which categories the URL belongs. The request is then allowed or denied according to the configured list of allowed categories. Using Web Content Filtering
Overview    528  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide   Web Rules  Web Filtering Subscription and Connection Requirement Web rules are included with the Safe@Office appliance and do not require a Service Center subscription or connection. The Web Filtering service is subscription-based and requires a connection to the Service Center.  You can use either Web content filtering solution or both in conjunction. When a user attempts to access a Web site, the Safe@Office appliance first evaluates the Web rules. If the site is not blocked or allowed by the Web rules, the Web Filtering service is then consulted.  Regardless of which method is used, if a user attempts to access a blocked page, the Access Denied page appears. For information on customizing this page, see Customizing the Access Denied Page on page 543. If desired, you can permit specific users to override Web content filtering, by granting them Web Filtering Override permissions. Such users will be able to view Web pages without restriction, after they have provided their username password via the Access Denied page. For information on granting Web Filtering Override permissions, see Adding and Editing Users on page 643. In addition, you can choose to exclude specific network objects from Web content filtering enforcement. Users connecting from these network objects will be able to view Web pages without restriction, regardless of whether they have Web Filtering Override permissions. For information on configuring network objects, see Using Network Objects on page 185.
 Using Web Rules  Chapter 16: Using Web Content Filtering  529  Using Web Rules  You can block or allow access to specific Web pages, by defining Web rules.    Note: Web rules affect outgoing traffic only and cannot be used to allow or limit access from the Internet to internal Web servers. The Safe@Office appliance processes Web rules in the order they appear in the Web Rules table, so that rule 1 is applied before rule 2, and so on. This enables you to define exceptions to rules, by placing the exceptions higher up in the Web Rules table.  For example, if you want to block all the pages of a particular Web site, except a specific page, you can create a rule blocking access to all of the Web site's pages and move the rule down in the Web Rules table. Then create a rule allowing access to the desired page and move this rule to a higher location in the Web Rules table than the first rule. In the figure below, the general rule is rule number 2, and the exception is rule number 1.
Using Web Rules    530  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  The Safe@Office appliance will process rule 1 first, allowing access to the desired page, and only then it will process rule 2, blocking access to the rest of the site.

A VPN is a private data network consisting of a group of gateways that can securely connect to each other. Each member of the VPN is called a VPN site, and a connection between two VPN sites is called a VPN tunnel. VPN tunnels encrypt and authenticate all traffic passing through them. Through these tunnels, employees can safely use their company’s network resources when working at home. For example, they can securely read email, use the company’s intranet, or access the company’s database from home. The are four types of VPN sites: • SecuRemote Remote Access VPN Server. Makes a network remotely available to authorized users who connect to the Remote Access VPN Server using the Check Point SecuRemote VPN Client (provided for free with your Safe@Office) or another Safe@Office.  Working With VPNs
Overview    562  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  • SecuRemote Internal VPN Server. SecuRemote can also be used from your internal networks, allowing you to secure your wired or wireless network with strong encryption and authentication. • L2TP VPN Server. Makes a network available to authorized users who connect from the Internet or from your internal networks using an L2TP client such as the Microsoft L2TP IPSec VPN Client.  • Site-to-Site VPN Gateway. Can connect with another Site-to-Site VPN Gateway in a permanent, bi-directional relationship.  • Remote Access VPN Client. Can connect to a Remote Access VPN Server, but other VPN sites cannot initiate a connection to the Remote Access VPN Client. Defining a Remote Access VPN Client is a hardware alternative to using SecuRemote software.  All Safe@Office models provide full VPN functionality. They can act as a Remote Access VPN Client, a Remote Access VPN Server for multiple users, or a Site-to-Site VPN Gateway.  A virtual private network (VPN) must include at least one Remote Access VPN Server or gateway. The type of VPN sites you include in a VPN depends on the type of VPN you want to create, Site-to-Site or Remote Access.  Note: A locally managed Remote Access VPN Server or gateway must have a static IP address. If you need a Remote Access VPN Server or gateway with a dynamic IP address, you must use SofaWare Security Management Portal (SMP) management. A SecuRemote/SecureClient or Safe@Office Remote Access VPN Client can have a dynamic IP address, regardless of whether it is locally or remotely managed.  Note: This chapter explains how to define a VPN locally. However, if your appliance is centrally managed by a Service Center, then the Service Center can automatically deploy VPN configuration for your appliance.
 Overview  Chapter 19: Working With VPNs  563  Site-to-Site VPNs A Site-to-Site VPN consists of two or more Site-to-Site VPN Gateways that can communicate with each other in a bi-directional relationship. The connected networks function as a single network. You can use this type of VPN to mesh office branches into one corporate network.  Figure 27: Site-to-Site VPN
Overview    564  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide   To create a Site-to-Site VPN with two VPN sites 1. On the first VPN site’s Safe@Office appliance, do the following: a. Define the second VPN site as a Site-to-Site VPN Gateway, using the procedure Adding and Editing VPN Sites   on page 581. b. Enable a Remote Access VPN Server using the procedure Setting Up Your Safe@Office Appliance as a VPN Server on page 567.  2. On the second VPN site’s Safe@Office appliance, do the following: a. Define the first VPN site as a Site-to-Site VPN Gateway, using the procedure  Adding and Editing VPN Sites   on page 581. b.

Note: You can manually configure each VPN site's internal encryption domain via the CLI. For information, refer to the Embedded NGX CLI Reference Guide.
 Overview  Chapter 19: Working With VPNs  565  Remote Access VPNs A Remote Access VPN consists of one Remote Access VPN Server or Site-to-Site VPN Gateway, and one or more Remote Access VPN Clients. You can use this type of VPN to make an office network remotely available to authorized users, such as employees working from home, who connect to the office Remote Access VPN Server with their Remote Access VPN Clients.  Figure 28: Remote Access VPN
Overview    566  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide   To create a Remote Access VPN with two VPN sites 1. On the remote user VPN site's Safe@Office appliance, add the office Remote Access VPN Server as a Remote Access VPN site. See Adding and Editing VPN Sites   on page 581. The remote user's Safe@Office appliance will act as a Remote Access VPN Client. 2. On the office VPN site's Safe@Office appliance, enable a Remote Access VPN Server. See Setting Up Your Safe@Office Appliance as a VPN Server on page 567.   Internal VPN Server You can use your Safe@Office appliance as an internal VPN Server, for enhanced wired and wireless security. When an internal VPN Server is enabled, internal network PCs and PDAs with the appropriate software installed can establish a Remote Access VPN session to the gateway. This means that connections from internal network users to the gateway can be encrypted and authenticated. The benefits of using an internal VPN Server are two-fold: • Accessibility Using SecuRemote/SecureClient or L2TP, you can enjoy a secure connection from anywhere—in your wireless network or on the road—without changing any settings. The standard is completely transparent and allows you to access company resources the same way, whether you are sitting at your desk or anywhere else. • Security Many of today's attacks are increasingly introduced from inside the network. Internal security threats cause outages, downtime, and lost revenue. Wired networks that deal with highly sensitive information—especially networks in public places, such as classrooms—are vulnerable to users trying to hack the internal network. Using an internal VPN Server, along with a strict security policy for non-VPN users, can enhance security both for wired networks and for wireless networks, which are particularly vulnerable to security breaches.  For information on setting up your Safe@Office appliance as an internal VPN Server, see Configuring the Internal VPN Server on page 571.
  Setting Up Your Safe@Office Appliance as a VPN Server  Chapter 19: Working With VPNs  567  Setting Up Your Safe@Office Appliance as a VPN Server  You can make your network available to authorized users connecting from the Internet or from your internal networks, by setting up your Safe@Office appliance as a VPN Server.  When the SecuRemote Remote Access VPN Server or SecuRemote Internal VPN Server is enabled, users can connect to the server via Check Point SecuRemote/SecureClient or via a Safe@Office appliance in Remote Access VPN mode. When the L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol) VPN Server is enabled, users can connect to the server using an L2TP client such as the Microsoft Windows L2TP IPSEC VPN Client. L2TP users are automatically assigned to the OfficeMode network, enabling you to configure special security rules for them. SecuRemote/SecureClient supports split tunneling, which means that VPN Clients can connect directly to the Internet, while traffic to and from VPN sites passes through the VPN Server. In contrast, the L2TP VPN Client does not support split tunneling, meaning that all Internet traffic to and from a VPN Client passes through the VPN Server and is routed to the Internet. Enabling the Safe@Office VPN Server for users connecting from your internal networks adds a layer of security to such connections. For example, while you could create a firewall rule allowing a specific user on the DMZ to access the LAN, enabling VPN access for the user means that such connections can be encrypted and authenticated. For more information, see Internal VPN Server on page 566.
Setting Up Your Safe@Office Appliance as a VPN Server    568  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide   To set up your Safe@Office appliance as a VPN Server 1.

Using Certificates    620  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  Using Certificates  A digital certificate is a secure means of authenticating the Safe@Office appliance to other Site-to-Site VPN Gateways. The certificate is issued by the Certificate Authority (CA) to entities such as gateways, users, or computers. The entity then uses the certificate to identify itself and provide verifiable information. For instance, the certificate includes the Distinguished Name (DN) (identifying information) of the entity, as well as the public key (information about itself). After two entities exchange and validate each other's certificates, they can begin encrypting information between themselves using the public keys in the certificates.  The certificate also includes a fingerprint, a unique text used to identify the certificate. You can email your certificate's fingerprint to the remote user. Upon connecting to the Safe@Office VPN Server for the first time, the entity should check that the VPN peer's fingerprint displayed in the SecuRemote/SecureClient VPN Client is identical to the fingerprint received.   The Safe@Office appliance supports certificates encoded in the PKCS#12 (Personal Information Exchange Syntax Standard) format.  Installing a Certificate  The Safe@Office appliance enables you to install PKCS#12 certificates in the following ways: • By generating a self-signed certificate. See Generating a Self-Signed Certificate on page 621. • By importing a certificate. The PKCS#12 file you import must have a ".p12" file extension. If you do not have such a PKCS#12 file, obtain one from your network security administrator.  See Importing a Certificate on page 626.
 Using Certificates  Chapter 19: Working With VPNs  621    Note: To use certificates authentication, each Safe@Office appliance should have a unique certificate.

When a user tries to log in to the Safe@Office Portal, the Safe@Office appliance sends the entered user name and password to the RADIUS server. The server then checks whether the RADIUS database contains a matching user name and password pair. If so, then the user is logged in. By default, all RADIUS-authenticated users are assigned the set of permissions specified in the Safe@Office Portal's RADIUS page. However, you can configure the RADIUS server to pass the Safe@Office appliance a specific set of permissions to grant the authenticated user, instead of these default permissions. This is done by configuring the RADIUS
 Using RADIUS Authentication  Chapter 20: Managing Users  651  Vendor-Specific Attribute (VSA) with a set of attributes containing permission information for specific users. If the VSA is configured for a user, then the RADIUS server passes the VSA to the Safe@Office appliance as part of the response to the authentication request, and the gateway assigns the user permissions as specified in the VSA. If the VSA is not returned by the RADIUS server for a specific user, the gateway will use the default permission set for this user.  In addition, you can configure the RADIUS server to pass the Safe@Office appliance a Secure HotSpot session timeout value. When the RADIUS server's Session-Timeout Attribute is configured, HotSpot users will be logged out after the specified session timeout has elapsed.  To use RADIUS authentication 1.

 Using Rapid Deployment  Chapter 23: Maintenance  725  Using Rapid Deployment  Safe@Office appliances are shipped with a specific firmware and group of settings that represent the appliance's default state. When installing a new appliance, you can configure different settings and install new firmware versions as needed; however, this can be time-consuming. Rapid deployment avoids this hassle, by allowing you to load the following settings from a USB flash drive during product initialization: • The primary firmware • The backup firmware • The configuration file • The default configuration file  The default configuration file contains settings that represent the desired appliance default state. The settings in the default configuration file become the appliance's new default settings and are retained even after a reset to defaults operation.    Important: The default configuration file cannot be cleared by performing a Reset to Defaults operation. It can only be cleared by loading an empty default configuration file.  • The certificate Rapid deployment can be used to configure several appliances in succession. If multiple appliances share a group of settings, you can use rapid deployment to configure each appliance with both the shared settings and the appliance-specific settings, all in one action. For example, before shipping appliances to your company’s branch offices, you can quickly configure all of the appliances with the corporate security policy and VPN settings, as well as with branch-specific settings.
Using Rapid Deployment    726  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  Preparing the USB Flash Drive for Rapid Deployment  Before performing a rapid deployment, you must load the USB flash drive with the files you want to install on the appliance(s).  To prepare the USB flash drive 1. For each appliance you want to deploy, create a folder named <MACAddress>, where <MACAddress> is the appliance’s MAC address, and the colons are replaced by underscores. For example, if the appliance's MAC address is 00:11:22:33:44:55, the folder name should be 00_11_22_33_44_55. 2. If you would like to deploy multiple appliances that share settings, create a folder named deploy. 3. Prepare the files that you want to install on the appliances. The files must be named according to the following table.  4. Add files containing settings that should be shared by all of the appliances to the deploy folder.  5. For each appliance, add files containing settings that are specific to the appliance to the folder named after the appliance's MAC address. For example, if you want two Safe@Office appliances to share the same primary firmware but to have different configuration files, you must prepare a single primary.firm file and add it to the deploy folder. Then you must prepare two different embeddedngx.cfg configuration files, and add one to each appliance's folder. Table 146: Rapid Deployment File Names This file...  Should be named... The primary firmware primary.firm / primary.img  The backup firmware secondary.firm / secondary.img
 Using Rapid Deployment  Chapter 23: Maintenance  727  This file...  Should be named... The configuration file embeddedngx.cfg The default configuration file preset.cfg The certificate embeddedngx.p12   Performing a Rapid Deployment  You must perform the following procedure on each Safe@Office appliance you want to deploy. To perform a rapid deployment 1. Reset the Safe@Office appliance to its default settings. See Resetting the Safe@Office Appliance to Defaults on page 728. 2.

Make sure that your Safe@Office appliance network settings are configured as per your ISP directions.  • Check your TCP/IP configuration according to Installing and Setting up the Safe@Office Appliance on page 45. • If Web Filtering or Email Filtering are on, try turning them off. Troubleshooting
Connectivity    758  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  • Check if you have defined firewall rules which block your Internet connectivity. • Check with your ISP for possible service outage. • Check whether you are exceeding the maximum number of computers allowed by your license, by viewing the My Computers page. I cannot access my DSL broadband connection. What should I do? DSL equipment comes in two flavors: bridges (commonly known as DSL modems) and routers. Some DSL equipment can be configured to work both ways.  • If you connect to your ISP using a PPPoE or PPTP dialer defined in your operating system, your equipment is most likely configured as a DSL bridge. Configure a PPPoE or PPTP type DSL connection.  • If you were not instructed to configure a dialer in your operating system, your equipment is most likely configured as a DSL router. Configure a LAN connection, even if you are using a DSL connection. For instructions, see Configuring the Internet Connection on page 85. I cannot access my Cable broadband connection. What should I do? • Some cable ISPs require you to register the MAC address of the device behind the cable modem. You may need to clone your Ethernet adapter MAC address onto the Safe@Office appliance. For instructions, see Configuring the Internet Connection on page 85. • Some cable ISPs require using a hostname for the connection. Try reconfiguring your Internet connection and specifying a hostname. For further information, see Configuring the Internet Connection on page 85.  I cannot access my ADSL connection from an ADSL appliance. What should I do? • Check that a micro-filter is used on all the phone sockets on the line (required in most locations). • Check that the DSL Standard setting configured for your appliance is compatible with your service provider. You can view this setting in the Network > Internet Setup page.  • Advanced ADSL configuration fine tuning options are available via the CLI. For information, refer to the Embedded NGX CLI Reference Guide.
 Connectivity  Chapter 25: Troubleshooting  759  I cannot access http://my.firewall or http://my.vpn. What should I do? • Verify that the Safe@Office appliance is operating. • Check if the LED for the LAN port used by your computer is green. If not, check if the network cable linking your computer to the Safe@Office appliance is connected properly. • By default, unencrypted HTTP access is not allowed from the wireless LAN to http://my.firewall or http://my.vpn. Therefore, if you are connecting from the wireless LAN, try connecting to https://my.firewall instead.  • Try surfing to 192.168.10.1 instead of to my.firewall.   Note: 192.168.10 is the default value, and it may vary if you changed it in the My Network page. • Check your TCP/IP configuration according to Installing and Setting up the Safe@Office Appliance on page 45. • Restart your Safe@Office appliance and your broadband modem by disconnecting the power and reconnecting after 5 seconds. • If your Web browser is configured to use an HTTP proxy to access the Internet, add my.firewall or my.vpn to your proxy exceptions list.  My network seems extremely slow. What should I do? • The Ethernet cables may be faulty. For proper operation, the Safe@Office appliance requires STP CAT5 (Shielded Twisted Pair Category 5) Ethernet cables. Make sure that this specification is printed on your cables. • Your Ethernet card may be faulty or incorrectly configured. Try replacing your Ethernet card. • There may be an IP address conflict in your network. Check that the TCP/IP settings of all your computers are configured to obtain an IP address automatically. I changed the network settings to incorrect values and am unable to correct my error. What should I do? Reset the network to its default settings using the button on the back of the Safe@Office appliance unit. See Resetting the Safe@Office Appliance to Defaults on page 728.
Connectivity    760  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  I am using the Safe@Office appliance behind another NAT device, and I am having problems with some applications. What should I do? By default, the Safe@Office appliance performs Network Address Translation (NAT). It is possible to use the Safe@Office appliance behind another device that performs NAT, such as a DSL router or Wireless router, but the device will block all incoming connections from reaching your Safe@Office appliance.   To fix this problem, do ONE of the following. (The solutions are listed in order of preference.)  • Consider whether you really need the router. The Safe@Office appliance can be used as a replacement for your router, unless you need it for some additional functionality that it provides. • If possible, disable NAT in the router. Refer to the router’s documentation for instructions on how to do this. • If the router has a “DMZ Computer” or “Exposed Host” option, set it to the Safe@Office appliance’s external IP address.  • Open the following ports in the NAT device:  • UDP 9281/9282 • UDP 500 • UDP 2746 • TCP 256 • TCP 264 • ESP IP protocol 50 • TCP 981 I cannot receive audio or video calls through the Safe@Office appliance. What should I do? To enable audio/video, you must configure an IP Telephony (H.323) virtual server. For instructions, see Configuring Servers on page 357. I run a public Web server at home but it cannot be accessed from the Internet. What should I do? Configure a virtual Web Server. For instructions, see Configuring Servers on page 357.
 Service Center and Upgrades  Chapter 25: Troubleshooting  761  I cannot connect to the LAN network from the DMZ or primary WLAN network. What should I do? By default, connections from the DMZ or primary WLAN network to the LAN network are blocked. To allow traffic from the DMZ or primary WLAN to the LAN, configure appropriate firewall rules. For instructions, see Using Rules on page 360.  Service Center and Upgrades I have exceeded my node limit. What does this mean? What should I do?  Your Product Key specifies a maximum number of nodes that you may connect to the Safe@Office appliance.  The Safe@Office appliance tracks the cumulative number of nodes on the internal network that have communicated through the firewall. When the Safe@Office appliance encounters an IP address that exceeds the licensed node limit, the My Computers page displays a warning message and marks nodes over the node limit in red. These nodes will not be able to access the Internet through the Safe@Office appliance, but will be protected. The Event Log page also warns you that you have exceeded the node limit. To upgrade your Safe@Office appliance to support more nodes, purchase a new Product Key. Contact your reseller for upgrade information. While trying to connect to a Service Center, I received the message “The Service Center did not respond”. What should I do? • If you are using a Service Center other than the Check Point Service Center, check that the Service Center IP address is typed correctly. • The Safe@Office appliance connects to the Service Center using UDP ports 9281/9282. If the Safe@Office appliance is installed behind another firewall, make sure that these ports are open.  I purchased an advanced Safe@Office model, but I only have the functionality of a simpler Safe@Office model. What should I do?  Your have not installed your product key. For further information, see Upgrading Your Software Product on page 685.
Other Problems    762  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  Other Problems I have forgotten my password. What should I do? Reset your Safe@Office appliance to factory defaults using the Reset button as detailed in Resetting the Safe@Office Appliance to Defaults on page 728. Why are the date and time displayed incorrectly? You can adjust the time on the Setup page's Tools tab. For information, see Setting the Time on the Appliance on page 699. I cannot use a certain network application. What should I do? Look at the Event Log page. If it lists blocked attacks, do the following: • Set the Safe@Office appliance's firewall level to Low and try again. • If the application still does not work, set the computer on which you want to use the application to be the exposed host.  For instructions, see Defining an Exposed Host. When you have finished using the application, make sure to clear the exposed host setting, otherwise your security might be compromised. In the Safe@Office Portal, I do not see the pop-up windows that the guide describes. What should I do? Disable any pop-up blockers for http://my.firewall.

DHCP uses the concept of a "lease" or amount of time that a given IP address will be valid for a computer.  DMZ A DMZ (demilitarized zone) is an internal network defined in addition to the LAN network and protected by the Safe@Office appliance.  DNS The Domain Name System (DNS) refers to the Internet domain names, or easy-to-remember "handles", that are translated into IP addresses. An example of a Domain Name is 'www.sofaware.com'.  Domain Name System Domain Name System. The Domain Name System (DNS) refers to the Internet domain names, or easy-to-remember "handles", that are translated into IP addresses. An example of a Domain Name is 'www.sofaware.com'.  E Exposed Host An exposed host allows one computer to be exposed to the Internet. An example of using an exposed host would be exposing a public server, while preventing outside users from getting direct access form this server back to the private network.  F Firmware Software embedded in a device.  G Gateway A network point that acts as an entrance to another network.  H Hacking An activity in which someone breaks into someone else's computer system, bypasses passwords or licenses in computer programs; or in other ways intentionally breaches computer security. The end result is that whatever resides on the computer can be viewed and sensitive data can be stolen without anyone knowing about it. Sometimes, tiny programs are 'planted' on the computer that are designed to watch out for, seize and then transmit to another computer, specific types of data.
 Glossary of Terms  Glossary of Terms  775  HTTPS Hypertext Transfer Protocol over Secure Socket Layer, or HTTP over SSL. A protocol for accessing a secure Web server. It uses SSL as a sublayer under the regular HTTP application. This directs messages to a secure port number rather than the default Web port number, and uses a public key to encrypt data HTTPS is used to transfer confidential user information.  Hub A device with multiple ports, connecting several PCs or network devices on a network.  I IP Address An IP address is a 32-bit number that identifies each computer sending or receiving data packets across the Internet. When you request an HTML page or send e-mail, the Internet Protocol part of TCP/IP includes your IP address in the message and sends it to the IP address that is obtained by looking up the domain name in the Uniform Resource Locator you requested or in the e-mail address you're sending a note to. At the other end, the recipient can see the IP address of the Web page requestor or the e-mail sender and can respond by sending another message using the IP address it received.  IP Spoofing A technique where an attacker attempts to gain unauthorized access through a false source address to make it appear as though communications have originated in a part of the network with higher access privileges. For example, a packet originating on the Internet may be masquerading as a local packet with the source IP address of an internal host. The firewall can protect against IP spoofing attacks by limiting network access based on the gateway interface from which data is being received.  IPSEC IPSEC is the leading Virtual Private Networking (VPN) standard. IPSEC enables individuals or offices to establish secure communication channels ('tunnels') over the Internet.  ISP An ISP (Internet service provider) is a company that provides access to the Internet and other related services.  L LAN A local area network (LAN) is a group of computers and associated devices that share a common communications line and typically share the resources of a single server within a small geographic area.
Glossary of Terms    776  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  M MAC Address The MAC (Media Access Control) address is a computer's unique hardware number. When connected to the Internet from your computer, a mapping relates your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address on the LAN.  Mbps Megabits per second. Measurement unit for the rate of data transmission.  MTU The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is a parameter that determines the largest datagram than can be transmitted by an IP interface (without it needing to be broken down into smaller units). The MTU should be larger than the largest datagram you wish to transmit un-fragmented. Note: This only prevents fragmentation locally. Some other link in the path may have a smaller MTU - the datagram will be fragmented at that point. Typical values are 1500 bytes for an Ethernet interface or 1452 for a PPP interface.  N NAT Network Address Translation (NAT) is the translation or mapping of an IP address to a different IP address. NAT can be used to map several internal IP addresses to a single IP address, thereby sharing a single IP address assigned by the ISP among several PCs. Check Point FireWall-1's Stateful Inspection Network Address Translation (NAT) implementation supports hundreds of pre-defined applications, services, and protocols, more than any other firewall vendor.  NetBIOS NetBIOS is the networking protocol used by DOS and Windows machines.  P Packet A packet is the basic unit of data that flows from one source on the Internet to another destination on the Internet. When any file (e-mail message, HTML file, GIF file etc.) is sent from one place to another on the Internet, the file is divided into "chunks" of an efficient size for routing. Each of these packets is separately numbered and includes the Internet address of the destination. The individual packets for a given file may travel different routes through the Internet. When they have all arrived, they are reassembled into the original file at the receiving end.  PPPoE PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) enables connecting multiple computer users on an Ethernet local area network to a remote site or ISP, through common customer premises equipment (e.g. modem).
 Glossary of Terms  Glossary of Terms  777  PPTP The Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) allows extending a local network by establishing private “tunnels” over the Internet. This protocol it is also used by some DSL providers as an alternative for PPPoE.  R RJ-45 The RJ-45 is a connector for digital transmission over ordinary phone wire.  Router A router is a device that determines the next network point to which a packet should be forwarded toward its destination. The router is connected to at least two networks.  S Server A server is a program (or host) that awaits and requests from client programs across the network. For example, a Web server is the computer program, running on a specific host, that serves requested HTML pages or files. Your browser is the client program, in this case.  Stateful Inspection Stateful Inspection was invented by Check Point to provide the highest level of security by examining every layer within a packet, unlike other systems of inspection. Stateful Inspection extracts information required for security decisions from all application layers and retains this information in dynamic state tables for evaluating subsequent connection attempts. In other words, it learns!  Subnet Mask A 32-bit identifier indicating how the network is split into subnets. The subnet mask indicates which part of the IP address is the host ID and which indicates the subnet.  T TCP TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) is a set of rules (protocol) used along with the Internet Protocol (IP) to send data in the form of message units between computers over the Internet. While IP takes care of handling the actual delivery of the data, TCP takes care of keeping track of the individual units of data (called packets) that a message is divided into for efficient routing through the Internet. For example, when an HTML file is sent to you from a Web server, the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) program layer in that server divides the file into one or more packets, numbers the packets, and then forwards them individually to the IP program layer. Although each packet has the same destination IP address, it may get routed differently through the network.
Glossary of Terms    778  Check Point Safe@Office User Guide  At the other end (the client program in your computer), TCP reassembles the individual packets and waits until they have arrived to forward them to you as a single file.  TCP/IP TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is the underlying communication protocol of the Internet.  U UDP UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a communications protocol that offers a limited amount of service when messages are exchanged between computers in a network that uses the Internet Protocol (IP). UDP is an alternative to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and, together with IP, is sometimes referred to as UDP/IP. Like the Transmission Control Protocol, UDP uses the Internet Protocol to actually get a data unit (called a datagram) from one computer to another. Unlike TCP, however, UDP does not provide the service of dividing a message into packets (datagrams) and reassembling it at the other end. UDP is often used for applications such as streaming data.  URL A URL (Uniform Resource Locator) is the address of a file (resource) accessible on the Internet. The type of resource depends on the Internet application protocol. On the Web (which uses the Hypertext Transfer Protocol), an example of a URL is 'http://www.sofaware.com'.  V VPN A virtual private network (VPN) is a private data network that makes use of the public telecommunication infrastructure, maintaining privacy through the use of a tunneling protocol and security procedures.  VPN tunnel A secure connection between a Remote Access VPN Client and a Remote Access VPN Server.  W WLAN A WLAN is a wireless local area network protected by the Safe@Office appliance.
