Firewall-1 and kernal memory

[Chris Frazier - PA <Chris_Frazier () gmacm com>]

Greetings,
I have had to increase the Kernal memory for Firewall-1 on my Solaris sparc
station in order to handle increased NAT traffic.  My question is the
following: does this memory refresh itself, or refresh after a reboot, or is
it constantly "eaten up" and several months from now, I'll have to increase
the hmem again?  Also, does this increase come from the RAM pool or from
actual physical memory (hard drive)?


Thanks
Chris Frazier
