Application Level Gateways (ALGs)

There are certain difficult applications that NAT and Firewall configurations
cannot manage. In many cases, Application Level Gateways (ALGs) are
needed to translate and transport packets correctly.
An ALG provides a service for a specific application. Incoming packets are
checked against existing NAT rules or Firewall filters, IP addresses are
