Firewall Guidelines and Procedures Complete

In October 2003, the Departmental Firewall Guidelines and Procedures document, developed by the Firewall Workgroup, was completed and released. Departmental LAN administrators who are preparing to employ a departmental firewall will find information regarding the implications of using a department firewall, typical network architectural alternatives for firewall use, estimated firewall costs, procedures for implementation of department firewall and suggested firewall rules. The Departmental Firewall Guidelines and Procedures PDF is available via the Computer and Network Security Campus Security Spotlight or go directly to http://security.ucdavis.edu/FWProcs.pdf.
