Semi-private zone firewall templates
A semi-private network interface provides connection to a network whose equipment can be
made physically secure, but whose medium is vulnerable to attack (such as a Wireless network
used within a corporation’s Private network infrastructure).
Because wireless connections cannot be easily controlled, strict firewall policy should be
enforced on the semi-private interface to limit the access from the semi-private zone to VPN
traffic. Clear traffic to Private and Management zones is not allowed. Common services to DMZ
are allowed and clear traffic to Public is allowed.
The semi-private high security rules are enforced for both incoming and outgoing packets as
follows.
Incoming traffic to the semi-private zone allowed includes:
●
VPN traffic. The VPN tunnel endpoints could be semi-private IP or Public IP.
●
Ping, DNS
●
ICMP unreachable packets
The following clear traffic is allowed
●
The source is semi-private and the destination is DMZ servers, with the following common
services: PING, FTP control, Passive Data FTP, SSH, Telnet, HTTP, HTTPs, POP3, IMAP,
SMTP, and NNTP.
