Just curious.. But why wouldn't you want to put tcpdump on your firewall? This could actually come in handy when diagnosing network issues that involve your firewall. If anything.. I could more than likely find literature supporting the installation of tcpdump on a firewall. On Thu, Oct 25, 2001 at 02:51:36PM -0400, hesselsp () ashaman dhs org wrote:
Anyone want to help me out here? I have had a request to put tcpdump on our firewall by one of our tech guys. I have told him that I will not do so, and he wants a good reason why. Does anyone have a ezine article or some other reference as to why I shouldn't put it on? -- -- Paul _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () nfr com http://list.nfr.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
