INTRODUCTION

Firewall

A firewall is a security guard placed at the point of entry between a private network and the outside Internet such thatall incoming and outgoing packets have to pass through it. The function of a firewall is to examine every incoming or outgoingpacket and decide whether to accept or discard it.

“ STRUCTURED FIREWALL “

INTRODUCTION

We introducing firewall that captures existing firewall technology and allow for extension networking technologies to which it was not applied previously.

The essential components of this model are authentication, integrity assurance, access control, and their enforcement

We concentrate on decision diagram rather than the often conflicting rules.

Here we addressing compactness problem to reduce rule redundancy.

NEED OF PROJECT

Problems with conventional firewalls.

Consistency

Completeness

Compactness

IMPLEMENTATION

Methodologies

Structured firewall design consists two steps

Step I

Once design a firewall using a firewall decision diagram instead of a sequence of often conflicting rules.

This method addresses the consistency problem, because an FDD is conflict free.

Step II A program converts FDD into compact, functionality will

remain equivalent, sequence of rules.

We used two algorithms FDD marking and FDD reduction to combine rules together.

To remove the redundancy of rules we used one more algorithm called firewall compaction.

OBJECTIVE’S

To achieve the following :

Completeness

Compactness

Consistency

To avoid often conflicting rules.

The firewall with above features is providing better security for data resource units at application layer in contrast to the conventional firewall systems.

CONCLUSION

The firewall addresses the following:

Consistency problem solution Because a firewall decision diagram is conflict free

Completeness problem solution Because the syntactic requirements of a FDD force to conceder all type of traffic

Compactness problem solution Because in second step using two algorithm FDD reduction and FDD marking to combine rules and one algorithm called Firewall Compaction to remove redundant rules.
