I confiugured firewall (CP 4.1) not to control ip routing, meaning when
firewall is dropped then it is still routing thwe packets. Frewall protexts
hosts that have public ip range, LAN and DMZ. Let's say firewall service
crashes but machine still works and can route the packets, so my networks
(10.0.0.0/16 and 192.168.99.0/24) are exposed.
Question: I think that even if fw service is down then nothing will happen
cause you cannot attack hosts with illegeal ip addresses-they simply won't
be routed back to attacker....but maybe I'm wrong here...I would like to
have some feedback on this.
Thanks.
