Ramon,
As with any proxy/application based firewall the vendor needs to provide a proxy/application for the firewall software to
permit access to services on the exterior side of the firewall. That is the limitation of proxy/application based firewalls. You are at the
mercy of the vendor to write proxies for services to pass through the firewall.
With the raptor firewall there is some leeway though. There is a GSP or Generic Service Passer service that will allow
you to pass services that are not defined or have a proxy for the firewall out of the box. The down side of this you will lose some
logging resolution and you will not be able to authenticate if you so desire. Plus it is a pain to set these up and you must set them up
for each new service you would like to allow through the firewall.
Take it from me this is one of the reasons we are phasing out Raptor in favor of Check Point.

Hi folks,
Nice a pleasure come back here.
I am newbie with Proxy Firewalls, but the real problem
is that the documentation with Raptor 6.0 for Solaris
2.6 is very poor.
How you can permit to everybody in your inside network
to browse and connect to every service or protocols
(IP, TCP and UDP) through the Raptor?
-With Rules I only can permit only 12 services and
PING, but no more.
-With Filters, I read that it is only for VPN.
I am not sure if Filters on each interface is only
what I need.
TIA
