Humm. Well, as I told you on the firewall-wizard's list, FW-1 creates a
Telnet session with the router and generates access lists based on the
policy you specify.
Think of manually creating a Telnet session with the router, entering
enable mode, and manually creating your access lists and groups.
Essentially, this is what FW-1 does when you compile the rules. Its
actually pretty simple.
Not sure what other "relevant" info you are looking for. Feel free to
respond with specific queries this time.
Cheers,
Chris
