the stated destination computer has
previously requested the current
communication. This is a way of
ensuring that all communications
are initiated by the recipient
computer and are taking place only
with sources that are known and
trusted from previous interactions.
In addition to being more rigorous
in their inspection of packets,
stateful inspection firewalls also
close off ports until a connection to
the specific port is requested.
When particular types of traffic are
checked, only the particular type of
traffic initiated from the internal LAN
will be allowed. For example, if the
user only checks FTP Service in
the Stateful Packet Inspection
section, all incoming traffic will be
blocked except for FTP connections
initiated from the local LAN.

If the router does not reply to an
IPX RIP request
packet, it will stay in the input
queue and not be
released. Accumulated packets
could cause the
input queue to fill, causing severe
problems for all
protocols. Enabling this feature
prevents the
packets accumulating.
