report
A formatted collection of information that is organized to provide project data
on a specific subject.
RFC (Request for Comments)
RFC documents describe standards used or proposed for the Internet. Each
RFC is identified by a number, such as RFC 1700. RFCs can be retrieved either
by e-mail or FTP.
route
The sequence of hosts through which information travels to reach its
destination host.
routed configuration or network
A configuration with separate network addresses assigned to at least two of
the three Firebox interfaces. This type of configuration is intended for
situations in which the Firebox is put in place with separate logical networks
on its interfaces.
router
A device, connected to at least two networks, that receives and sends packets
between those networks. Routers use headers and a forwarding table to
forward packets to their destination. Most rely on ICMP to communicate with
one another and configure the best route between any two hosts.
RUVPN (Remote User VPN)
Remote User Virtual Private Networking establishes a secure connection
between an unsecured remote host and a protected network over an
unsecured network.
scalable architecture
Software and/or hardware constructed so that, after configuring a single
machine, the same configuration can be propagated to a group of connected
machines.
screening router
A machine that performs packet filtering.
secondary network
A network on the same physical wire as a Firebox interface that has an
address belonging to an entirely different network.
SecurID server
Each time an end user connects to the specialized-HTTP server running on the
Firebox on port 4100, a Java-enabled applet opens prompting for the
username, password, and whether or not to use SecurID (PAP)
Authentication. The username and password are DES-encrypted using a
secret key shared between the Java client and the Firebox. The Firebox then
decrypts the name and password to create a RADIUS PAP Access-Request
packet, and then sends it to the configured RADIUS server.
