Chapter 6, Problem 14RQ
Program Plan Intro
Firewall architecture:
Entire firewall devices are configured in various network architectures. They might be mutually exclusive, but sometimes may not be. It works best for an organization that depends on following factors:
- Main purposes of the network
- Company’s capacity to establish the architectures
- Cost of the utilities.
The common architectural implements of firewall are:
- Single bastion hosts
- Screened host architecture
- Screened subnet architecture
