i am not entirely sure about the ports and how they are used as I have not
attempted such things. However some of the active state firewalls, Cisco
PIX and Checkpoint fit into these, I believe do active filtering and will
open ports at random by looking at the actual traffic. I believe that it is
to solve these exact issues. It looks at whether it is a reply to a request
from previous traffic as I understand it.
The problem with these products is that they aren't cheap.
