Does Checkpoint's Firewall-1 understand how to deal with Microsoft RPC?
I have a machine in a DMZ that I need to do RPC communications with. Can the
stateful inspection engine in FW-1 do the following:
1. Machine on Internet makes connection to DMZ machine on port 135.
2. DMZ machine's portmapper returns a high port to outside machine.
3. FW-1 stateful inspection dynamically opens this high port for
communications only between the two machines.
4. The machines do their normal RPC stuff.
5. FW-1 closes the high port.
Thanks for your help.
