Re: Firewall in AS400

[Dr Syd Nicholson <sydnic@xxxxxxxxxx>]

What do you mean by a firewall?

There was a firewall product that relied on the presence of an IPCS
card, but this was withdrawn and no longer available.

Is your iSeries directly connected to the Internet, or is there another
machine (perhaps a gateway) between it and the internet?

There are products like firewalls, that use the OS/400 exit points to
provide secure access to the system. These products protect the iSeries
in both the internet and intranet environments.  Companies manufacturing
these exit point products are:

    Castlehill Computer Services Ltd.  - www.ccs400.com   - SECURE/NET
    PowerTech Inc  -  www.powertechgroup.com  -  PowerLock
    Pentasafe  -  www.pentasafe.com

Regarding SECURE/NET - Please be aware that the SECURE/NET product
advertised on the Palace Guard Software web site is NOT the SECURE/NET
product manufactured by Castlehill Hill Computer Services Ltd.

You may want to look at what these products have to offer.
