Refers to the hosts protected by the firewall. In common parlance, these hosts are behind the firewall, and hence on an inside network. So, by extension, the unprotected networks and hosts are considered to be outside the firewall.

A very general authorization rule that applies to packets that arrive on a particular interface on the firewall.

This acronym means "Internet Information Center" and refers to the Internet's governing/charter organization.

This acronym means "Internet Protocol (IP) Security" and refers to the suite of protocols being developed at the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) that can be used for secure, private communications across the Internet, over VPN. IPSEC generally uses static keys to accomplish its security and privacy goals, though the underlying protocols can also be handled using ISAKMP.
Industry:Network hardware
This acronym means "Internet Relay Chat", or simply "Chat", and refers to the application protocol that uses 6667/TCPxr.
Industry:Network hardware
This acronym means "Internet Security Association Key Management Protocol", and refers to a proposed standard for dynamic key exchange for VPN. Also known as IKE.
Industry:Network hardware
Local tunnelling is the basically the same as packet filtering. Packets that pass through the filter/tunnel are unaltered, hence, address hiding, traffic logging, and authorization using rules do not occur. Access to the tunnel can be controlled by source and destination IP address, traffic direction, and port number.

Refers to the SMTP/Mail setup screen in the RCU configuration GUI (RCU> Gateway> Configure> Mail). The Mail wizard is a quick and easy way to create the rules and Service Redirections necessary to get SMTP/Mail through the firewall, but it does have a few limitations. For instance, configuration information from any previous invocation of the Mail Wizard is not displayed in the window fields. Also, the Mail Wizard can only be used to configure how traffic for the first (initial) SMTP/mail server will be handled. Access to subsequent SMTP/mail servers behind the firewall must be accomplished by manually creating the rules and Service Redirections.
Industry:Network hardware
This acronym means "Mail eXchange" Record, and refers to the DNS resource record used to describe where SMTP mail should be delivered for a given Internet domain. For most customers, the MX record for their domain should point to the outside address of their Raptor Firewall.
Industry:Network hardware
A net entity is a network object, such as a host, a subnet, or a group containing hosts and/or subnets. Net entities can be used to build rules, filters, tunnels, and VPNs.
