If you are asking for stateful filtering for a firewall that sees only one-way conversation, it does not exist and cannot exist, by definition. If you are asking for some way for firewall A that sees only inbound packets and firewall B that sees only outbound packets to communicate said information - I suggest mirror port on a switch. Otherwise, as long as firewall sees both incoming and outgoing packets, why would it care what happens later at your border routers? -- Alex Pilosov | DSL, Colocation, Hosting Services President | [email protected] (800) 710-7031 Pilosoft, Inc. | http://www.pilosoft.com On Tue, 16 Mar 2004, Mike Turner wrote: > Hello Everyone, > > I am currently looking for a statefull inspection firewall > that support asymmetric routing - is there such a product?
