  There are now so many "applications" engineered to bypass port filters
(and/or tunnel over ports opened for other purposes) that this is really
no longer an adequate basis for security.  I think we have to start getting
serious about proxies and deep inspection to verify that traffic really
complies with policy, and not just with port number use.
