16 Multicast bintec elmeg GmbH Chapter 16 Multicast What is multicasting? Many new communication technologies are based on communication from one sender to several recipients. Therefore, modern telecommunication systems such as voice over IP or video and audio streaming (e.g. IPTV or Webradio) focus on reducing data traffic, e.g. by offering TriplePlay (voice, video, data).
16 Multicast bintec elmeg GmbH dedicated host, but rather a group, i.e. during the routing of multicast packets, the decisive factor is whether a recipient is in a logged-in subnet.

19 Firewall bintec elmeg GmbH Chapter 19 Firewall The Stateful Inspection Firewall (SIF) provided for bintec elmeg gateways is a powerful se- curity feature. The SIF with dynamic packet filtering has a decisive advantage over static packet filtering: The decision whether or not to send a packet cannot be made solely on the basis of source and destination addresses or ports but also using dynamic packet filtering based on the state of the connection to a partner.
19 Firewall bintec elmeg GmbH One of the basic functions of NAT is the translation of the local IP addresses of your LAN into the global IP addresses you are assigned by your ISP and vice versa. All connections initiated externally are first blocked, i.e. every packet your device cannot assign to an exist- ing connection is rejected.

19 Firewall bintec elmeg GmbH in succession until a rule matches. If overlapping occurs, i.e. more than one filter rule matches a packet, only the first rule is executed. This means that if the first rule denies a packet, whereas a later rule allows it, the packet is rejected. A deny rule also has no effect if a relevant packet has previously been allowed by another filter rule.
