Tunnel is an often misused term. In one sense it can be used to refer to the Raptor Firewall's packet filtering ability - that is, local tunnels. It can also be used when discussing the implementation of VPN, as in RaptorMobile tunnels, IPSEC tunnels, or ISAKMP tunnels.

This acronym means "Virtual Private Networking". VPN is a secure means of moving sensitive information across an inherently unsecure network, such as the Internet, to a protected network behind a secure gateway. VPN traffic is encrypted to secure the information, and encapsulated so that the secure gateway understands where to send the traffic in the protected network. Encapsulation can also have the desirable side-effect of concealing the final destination, or the real source from prying eyes during its transmission across the unsecure network. The Raptor Firewall supports the ISAKMP dynamic key exchange mechanism, which reduces the administrative tasks necessary for configuring VPN traffic. Since the IPSEC and ISAKMP technologies are public domain standards, the VPN functionality of the Raptor firewall can interoperate with other vendor platforms that are also compliant.
Industry:Network hardware
The process of verifying that a client is who or what it claims to be. The Raptor Firewall supports the ACE/SecurID, Cryptocard, NT Domain, Belcore S/Key, Radius, Tacacs+, and gwpasswd authentication schemes. The Raptor Firewall supports both static and dynamic authentication modes for many of these schemes.
Industry:Network hardware
A software program that requests the use of a network service. In this context, a browser is considered a client program. Sometimes the term client is used to refer to hosts (PCs, workstations) on which the client software runs, as in the question, "How many clients are behind the firewall?"
Industry:Network hardware
This acronym means Simple Mail Transport Protocol, and refers to the primary method of moving email across the Internet. SMTP uses port 25/TCP.
Industry:Network hardware
This term is most often used when describing service redirection, and refers to an additional IP address that is assigned to the firewall's outside NIC through host routes on the Internet router (not through the network control panel on the firewall, as Raptor Firewall does not support this).
Industry:Network hardware
DNS is the service used to translate Internet names, such as www.symantec.com, into IP addresses, and the reverse. This service is used by client software, such as the browser on a PC, to locate companies and resources on the Internet and uses ports 53/TCP and 53/UDP.

Dieser Begriff wird am häufigsten verwendet, bei der Beschreibung von Service-Umleitung und bezieht sich auf eine zusätzliche IP-Adresse, die außerhalb der Firewall NIC durch Host-Routen auf dem Internet-Router zugewiesen ist (nicht über das Netzwerk-Control-Panel auf der Firewall, wie Raptor Firewall nicht unterstützt dies).
