Page 27 The Firewall Services Module (FWSM) is a high-performance, space-saving, stateful firewall module that installs in the Catalyst 6500 series switches and the Cisco 7600 series routers. Firewalls protect inside networks from unauthorized access by users on an outside network. The firewall can also protect inside networks from each other, for example, by keeping a human resources network separate from a user network.

By default, no traffic can pass through the firewall. By applying ACLs to interfaces, you can determine which IP addresses and traffic types can pass through the interfaces to access other networks. By default, the Cisco PIX firewall allows traffic to flow freely from an inside network (higher security Note level) to an outside network (lower security level).

Assigning VLANs in Cisco IOS Software In Cisco IOS software, create one or more firewall VLAN groups, and then assign the groups to the FWSM. For example, you can assign all the VLANs to one group, or you can create an inside group and an outside group, or you can create a group for each customer.

Page 62 For multiple context mode, the FWSM first classifies the packet according to either a unique VLAN or a unique destination address. In this case, the VLAN would be unique; the www.cisco.com IP address is not located uniquely within a context and is not a unique destination address.

Because Class A addresses have 16,777,214 host addresses, and Class B addresses 65,534 hosts, you can use subnet masking to break these huge networks into smaller subnets. Catalyst 6500 Series Switch and Cisco 7600 Series Router Firewall Services Module Configuration Guide OL-6392-01...

Page 367: Protocols And Applications
The FWSM does not pass multicast packets. Many routing protocols use multicast packets for data Note transfer. If you need to send routing protocols across the FWSM, configure the routers with the Cisco IOS software neighbor command. We consider it inherently dangerous to send routing protocols across the FWSM.
