I have been noticing since I upgraded to 4.1 SP2 that my logs are getting a lot more of these rule 0 drops than I had ever seen before. >From what I understand, this happens because the firewall is receiving a TCP packet with the established bit set and it has no session information in it's state tables to verify that this is a valid conversation. Is this something that just happens a lot with TCP conversations and nothing to be concerned about, or is this a symptom of some problem which I should pay closer attention too? The packets which are causing the rule 0 drop are invariably arriving at the outside interface. I know I can prevent this from being logged, but I would rather make sure that I am not covering up a problem before I do this. My interfaces on all my routers look really clean, and the settings on the firewall properties for TCP session timeouts is set for 30 minuten. Could this be a problem with my fw dropping it's state table entries? ================================================================================ To unsubscribe from this mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.checkpoint.com/services/mailing.html ================================================================================
