Question:
You have accepted a position as network administrator for a law firm. Unfortunately, the previous administrator did not leave much documentation of the network infrastructure and it’s configuration. You have spent many hours documenting the transmission media, data storage and device configuration.
You have examined the firewall in an attempt to understand the existing rules and their purpose, and to see whether rewriting the rule base could speed up the firewall’s performance and improve security. Table 9-14 shows the notes you have made about the firewall rule base. The firewall works correctly, but some simple changes to the rule base could improve it’s performance dramatically.
The network has IP addresses from 210.100.101.0 to 210.100.101.255. The firewall is at 210.100.101.1, the web server is at 210.100.101.2, the DNS server is at 210.100.101.3, the SMTP server is at 210.100.101.4, and the POP3 serveris at 210.100.101.5.
