Security Policy Overview
Security Policy Overview
A security policy determines which traffic is allowed to pass through the firewall to access another
network. The FWSM does not allow any traffic to pass through unless explicitly allowed by an access
list. You can apply actions to traffic to customize the security policy. This section discusses some
commonly-used features; not all features are listed here. This section includes the following topics:
•
Permitting or Denying Traffic with Access Lists, page 1-4
•
Applying NAT, page 1-4
•
Protecting from IP Fragments, page 1-4

Syslog messages
This feature enables users to choose whether or not to apply name translation while generating
syslogs to the console, syslog server, and FTP syslog server.
The following command was introduced:
logging names
.
Shared Management
Interface in Transparent
Mode
You can now add a management VLAN that is not part of any bridge group. This VLAN is
especially useful in multiple context mode where you can share a single management VLAN across
multiple contexts.
The following command was introduced for transparent mode:
management-only
Teardown Syslog
Enhancement
New syslogs were added for when a connection is torn down.
The following syslog messages were introduced: 302030 through 33.
SNMP Buffer
enhancement
With this enhancement, SNMP requests will be handled more efficiently, so that the allocated
blocks for SNMP are freed up quickly, thus leaving enough blocks for other processes.
No commands were modified.
Troubleshooting Features
Crashinfo enhancement
The crashinfo enhancement improves the reliability of generating crash information.
No commands were modified.
