SecureWay Firewall V4.2 for Windows NT and AIX Offers More Secure, Cost-Effective Connectivity

Transcription

1 Software Announcement June 20, 2000 SecureWay Firewall V4.2 for Windows NT and AIX Offers More Secure, Cost-Effective Connectivity Overview IBM s SecureWay Firewall products can help protect your network by: Only admitting authorized traffic through the firewall Hiding the IP addresses and configuration of the internal network from the untrusted network Authenticating users and traffic while controlling access Hardening of the Firewall system so that there is less chance for hackers to get into or through the firewall Allowing you to log all traffic through the firewall and use it to generate user activity reports What s New in Firewall V4.2 for both Windows NT and AIX Platforms Administrators may now perform basic administration functions on the Firewall from a downloadable SecureWay Tivoli Plus Module (English). The WTE V2.0 (HTTP proxy), which shipped with Firewall 4.1, has been upgraded to WTE V3.0. A new Connection Wizard makes it easier for you to configure and activate some of the typical filter rules to allow traffic through the Firewall. Function from SecureWay Boundary Server has been integrated to enable you to authenticate users in the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) database using Tivoli SecureWay Policy Director. The AIX platform is further enhanced with the addition of: Firewall V4.2, which allows you to use the AIX Internet Key Exchange (IKE) plus the latest AIX services. An IKE compliant Virtual Private Network (VPN) Client, which allows remote users to establish a VPN tunnel with the Firewall. Dynamic filters for the FTP PASV command, which allow you to define a connection for FTP sessions. Filter rules permitting the data connection are dynamically allocated and removed based upon ports in use by the server. Key Prerequisites Windows NT installations require Windows NT Server V4. AIX installations require AIX V Planned Availability Date July 7, 2000 At a Glance Protect your valuable business assets, provide a virtual private network, and offer easy-to-use administration with comprehensive network security! Firewall 4.2 for AIX extends V4.1 with new features: AIX IKE support IKE VPN Client Dynamic filter for FTP PASV Firewall 4.2 offers the following new features for AIX and Windows NT: Firewall administration from Tivoli managed systems Web Traffic Express (WTE3) upgrade Connection Wizard LDAP user authentication For ordering, contact: Your IBM representative, an IBM Business Partner, or IBM Americas Call Centers at 800-IBM-CALL Reference: YE001 This announcement is provided for your information only.

2 Description SecureWay Plus Module for Tivoli Firewall users can now perform remote administration from a Tivoli console using the Plus module. The module lets you perform the following tasks: Manage distribution and installation of the IBM Firewall Manage subscription lists for clients and servers Monitor key processes and services Monitor IBM Firewall clients from the console Start and stop processes or services from the Tivoli desktop For instructions on downloading the Plus module visit: This module is in the English language only. Web Traffic Express (WTE) Upgrade The SecureWay Firewall V4.2 provides a full-featured HTTP proxy implementation based upon a new, upgraded version of the WTE3 product. The HTTP proxy efficiently handles browser requests through the IBM Firewall, eliminating the need for a socks server for Web browsing. Connection Wizard The Connection Wizard is designed to simplify configuration of common Firewall connections. The wizard is a fast mechanism for building connections while reducing human error. It is provided as an option to users who are inexperienced with filter configuration or who are interested in fast set-up of some of the more typical kinds of filter connections. It can be useful for configuring DMZ Firewalls (or any Firewall with more than two adapters). Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) User Authentication The Firewall accesses SecureWay Directory LDAP is used to authenticate the following proxy users: FTP Telnet HTTP Socks The Tivoli SecureWay Policy Director (5698-PDD or 5698-PDI) is not included with Firewall and must be purchased separately. If you do not use the SecureWay Directory, the Firewall uses the local database to authenticate users. To configure the Firewall for LDAP authentication, use the LDAP wizard, which is accessible from the Help menu in the Firewall configuration client GUI. Dynamic Filter for File Transfer Protocol PASV Command (FTP PASV) With PASV FTP data transfers, the client sends a PASV command, and the server performs a passive TCP-open on a random port. The server then informs the client of the port number, and the client does an active-open to establish the connection. IBM Firewall V4.2 supports PASV FTP transfers by monitoring and identifying PASV FTP control connections. Once a control connection has been identified, a dynamic filter rule is defined. The filter rule is removed once transfer ends. AIX Internet Key Exchange (IKE) Support Firewall V4.2 supports IKE tunnels in AIX V IKE is a protocol for automatically and securely exchanging a VPN tunnel s encryption keys. Therefore, it substantially simplifies the configuration and maintenance of VPN tunnels. IKE VPN Client IBM will make available the Ashley Laurent corporation s VPN Client (VPCom Client) for your use. This VPN Client can be installed on Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows NT Workstations. It can be used to establish an IKE tunnel between the Client and another host running an IKE implementation, such as AIX V Firewall V4.2 running on AIX V4.3.3 supports IKE tunnels configured with this VPN Client. Capabilities No Longer Supported in Firewall V4.2 The limited license Security Dynamics Ace/Server package Triple DES with Key Recovery has been dropped since U.S. export regulations no longer require this capability for Triple DES products with retail export status. Year 2000 This product is Year 2000 ready. When used in accordance with its associated documentation, it is capable of correctly processing, providing, and/or receiving date data within and between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, provided that all products (for example, hardware, software, and firmware) used with the product properly exchange accurate date data with it. The service end date for this Year 2000 ready product is June 30, Euro Currency This program is not impacted by euro currency.
