Service Redirection is an application-level feature of the Raptor Firewall that operates with the firewall's standard proxies and the GSP. In simple terms, service redirection allows the firewall administrator to specify where non-transparent traffic for specific application-level services, such as HTTP or SMTP, will be sent.

SRL
This acronym means "Secure Remote Login", and refers to the encrypted and secured login facility available with the Raptor Firewall. SRL uses port 423/TCP.
Industry:Network hardware
This acronym means "SMTP daemon", and refers to the Raptor SMTP proxy that is installed as part of the Raptor Firewall. SMTPd is one of the firewall's standard proxies.
Industry:Network hardware
A packet sniffer that comes with the Raptor Firewall.
Industry:Network hardware
This acronym means Simple Network Management Protocol, and refers to the protocols that use ports 161/UDP and 162/UDP. SNMP is described in a number of RFCs, the most recent being RFCs 1901 thru 1908.

SPI
This acronym means Security Parameter Index, and refers to the number that uniquely identifies an IPSEC Security Association (SA). Specifically, the SPI is used to identify data integrity (authentication) and data privacy (encryption) algorithms, as well as the keys, to be used when handling IP traffic within the SA.
Industry:Network hardware
Another way of referring to a GSP. This name is derived from the fact that GSPs handle ports or protocols not managed by the standard proxies, which, in this context at least, makes them special.
Industry:Network hardware
The opposite of dynamic authentication. Static authentication refers to an authentication scheme where the usernames and groups are replicated on the firewall in addition to the authentication server.
Industry:Network hardware
This acronym means "Telecommunications Network", and refers to the terminal session application-level protocol that uses port 23/TCP.
Industry:Network hardware
Refers to a connection (TCP) or data stream (UDP) sent by a client directly to a server, in which the client is unaware of the intervening gateway. The opposite of non-transparent. Transparent access is routinely used for outbound traffic so that clients are unaware of the intervening gateway. This is sometimes referred to as server-side transparency, because the true server, and not the gateway, is the target of the connection.
