A firewall doesn't have to be an external device. It can be software that runs on the server that runs tomcat. (Which kind of software depends on the operating system you use to run tomcat).
If you use linux you have already a firewall as part of the os. (IPChains for linux 2.2/IPTables for linux 2.4) E.G. for MS: http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/home.jsp (That's no recommendation, I never used it.
