It is an active reconnaissance network security analysis technique that attempts to determine which layer 4 protocols a specific firewall will allow. Firewalk is a software tool that performs Firewalking. To protect a firewall or gateway against firewalking one can block outgoing TTL messages to avoid exposing information about your network.
In computer engineering, Halt and Catch Fire, known by the assembly language mnemonic HCF, is an idiom referring to a computer machine code instruction that causes the computer's central processing unit (CPU) to cease meaningful operation, typically requiring a restart of the computer.
Network programming traditionally covers different layers of OSI/ISO model (most of application-level programming belongs to L4 and up). The table below contains some examples of popular protocols belonging to different OSI/ISO layers, and popular APIs for them.
How to achieve effective NLOS networking has become one of the major questions of modern computer networking. Currently, the most common method for dealing with NLOS conditions on wireless computer networks is simply to circumvent the NLOS condition and place relays at additional locations, sending the content of the radio transmission around ...

An NEC Nehalem cluster. Fencing is the process of isolating a node of a computer cluster or protecting shared resources when a node appears to be malfunctioning. [1] [2]As the number of nodes in a cluster increases, so does the likelihood that one of them may fail at some point.
Network Enclaves consist of standalone assets that do not interact with other information systems or networks. A major difference between a DMZ or demilitarized zone and a network enclave is a DMZ allows inbound and outbound traffic access, where firewall boundaries are traversed. In an enclave, firewall boundaries are not traversed.
Firewall rules are based on the evaluation of network packets against predetermined security criteria. A network packet, which carries data across networks, must match certain attributes defined in a rule to be allowed through the firewall. These attributes commonly include: Direction: Inbound or outbound traffic
