Overview of the BaySecure FireWall-1 Software

The BaySecure FireWall-1 software builds firewall security features into Nortel

Networks router software. It does this by integrating the stateful inspection

module from Version 2.1 of the Check Point Software Technologies FireWall-1

software into the Nortel Networks router operating system (BayRS) of Nortel

Networks BN

, ASN

™

, and ARN

™

routers.

BaySecure FireWall-1 is a firewall only, and does not include the entire suite of

Check Point features. BaySecure FireWall-1 supports the inspection module and

logging capabilities of the Check Point FireWall-1 product.

Managing Firewall Operation

A firewall is the hardware and/or software that limits the exposure of a computer

or network to an attack from an external source.

To control the operation of a firewall on the router, you use the Check Point

FireWall-1 management software.

You install this management software on a computer running Windows NT

UNIX to create a firewall management station. From the management station, you

can use the FireWall-1 management software to define a security policy and

download it to the router. The security policy specifies how the firewall operates.

For instructions on how to install the FireWall-1 management software, see

Chapter 2, “Installing the FireWall-1 Management Software.” To learn how to

configure a security policy, see your Check Point documentation.
