    A certification path is the hierarchy of certification authority certificates that validate a certificate. The OX253P does not trust a certificate if any certificate on its path has expired or been revoked.
  • Page 114 10.4.1.1 Advantages of Certificates Certificates offer the following benefits. • The OX253P only has to store the certificates of the certification authorities that you decide to trust, no matter how many devices you need to authenticate. • Key distribution is simple and very secure since you can freely distribute public keys and you never need to transmit private keys.
  • Page 115: Verifying A Certificate

    Chapter 10 The Certificates Screens 10.4.2 Verifying a Certificate Before you import a certificate into the OX253P, you should verify that you have the correct certificate. This is especially true of trusted certificates since the OX253P also trusts any valid certificate signed by any of the imported trusted certificates.

    The following terms and concepts may help as you read through this chapter. About the OX253P Firewall The OX253P firewall is a stateful inspection firewall and is designed to protect against Denial of Service attacks when activated. The OX253P's purpose is to allow a private Local Area Network (LAN) to be securely connected to the Internet.
  • Page 119: Firewall Setting

    Chapter 11 The Firewall Screens The OX253P can be used to prevent theft, destruction and modification of data, as well as log events, which may be important to the security of your network. The OX253P is installed between the LAN and a WiMAX base station connecting to the Internet.
  • Page 120: Triangle Route

    Forwarded WAN-to-LAN packets are not considered alerts. 11.2.2 Triangle Route When the firewall is on, your OX253P acts as a secure gateway between your LAN and the Internet. In an ideal network topology, all incoming and outgoing network traffic passes through the OX253P to protect your LAN against attacks.

    A computer on the LAN initiates a connection by sending out a SYN packet to a receiving server on the WAN. The OX253P reroutes the SYN packet through Gateway A on the LAN to the WAN. The reply from the WAN goes directly to the computer on the LAN without going through the OX253P.

    Internet content filtering allows you to create and enforce Internet access policies tailored to their needs. Content filtering is the ability to block certain web features or specific URL keywords. The OX253P can block web features such as ActiveX controls, Java applets, cookies and disable web proxies. The OX253P also allows you to define time periods and days during which the OX253P performs content filtering.
