How a Stateful Firewall Works

How a Stateful Firewall Works The stateful firewall spends most of its cycles examining packet information in Layer 4 (transport) and lower. It also offers more advanced inspection capabilities by targeting vital packets for Layer 7 (application) examination, such as the packet that initializes a connection. If the inspected packet matches an existing firewall rule that permits it, the packet is passed and an entry is added to the state table.

How a Stateful Firewall Works From that point forward, because the packets in that particular communication session match an existing state table entry, they are allowed access without call for further application layer inspection. Those packets only need to have their Layer 3 and 4 information (IP address and TCP/UDP port number) verified against the information stored in the state table to confirm that they are indeed part of the current exchange. This method increases overall firewall performance (versus proxy-type systems, which examine all packets) because only initiating packets need to be unencapsulated the whole way to the application layer.

How a Stateful Firewall Works Because these firewalls use such filtering techniques, they don't consider the application layer commands for the entire communications session, as a proxy firewall would. This equates to an inability to really control sessions based on application-level traffic, making it a less secure alternative to a proxy. Stateful firewall's speed advantage and its ability to handle just about any traffic flow (as opposed to the limited number of protocols supported by an application-level proxy), it can be an excellent choice as the only perimeter protection device for a site or as a role player in a more complex network environment.
