Compare and Contrast
In this assignment, I want you to choose one firewall from group 1 and one firewall from group 2. For each of the firewalls you have chosen, describe how each works (an overview is fine) and then compare and contrast the two you have chosen. Give the pro's and con's and describe what situation each of your chosen firewalls is best for.
Group 1 Group 2
Packet Filtering Firewall Dedicated application-specific Firewall
Stateful Inspection Firewall Application Gateway Firewall
Circuit level gateway Firewall Proxy Firewall
