ISEC 650Homework 2

Question 1

You see a network topology and an empty firewall rule table. Internal LAN is the network in which user computers have been located. DMZ is the demilitarized zone in which bastion hosts have been placed.  You can see a web server in the DMZ.  The role of the webserver is to serve the web pages hosted on it to the Internet over port 80/http service. It is a strict company policy that all of the computer users within Internal LAN can access to port 80/http and port 443/ssl services on the Internet. All of the network traffic other than the mentioned above should be blocked and logged.  Please create the required rule (ACL) table.

.

Rule # Source IP/Network/Any Target IP/Network/Any Target Service (Port Number or Service Name) Action (Allow or Block) Logging (Enabled or Disabled)
           
           
           
           

 

 

Question 2 – Weekly Learning and Reflection

In two to three paragraphs of prose (i.e., sentences, not bullet lists) using APA style citations if needed, summarize and interact with the content that was covered this week in class. In your summary, you should highlight the major topics, theories, practices, and knowledge that were covered. Your summary should also interact with the material through personal observations, reflections, and applications to the field of study. In particular, highlight what surprised, enlightened, or otherwise engaged you. Make sure to include at least one thing that you’re still confused about or ask a question about the content or the field. In other words, you should think and write critically not just about what was presented but also what you have learned through the session. Questions asked here will be summarized and answered anonymously in the next class.
