example, IP, DHCP, and MAC spoofing, as well as L2 frame spoofing and Bridge Protocol Data Unit
(BPDU) attacks.

Network parameter tuning
|
Tuning network parameters ensures that the network is secure and prevents malicious attacks,
for example, various types of denial-of-service (DoS) attacks.

feature of Oracle Solaris is a firewall that provides stateful packet filtering and network address
translation (NAT). IP Filter also includes stateless packet filtering and the ability to create and
manage address pools.

IP Security Architecture (IPsec)
|
IPsec provides cryptographic protection for IP datagrams in IPv4 and IPv6 network packets.
IPsec includes several components that provide protection for IP packages by authenticating or
encrypting the packets.
|
|
Internet Key Exchange (IKE)
|
The IKE feature automates key management for IPsec. IKE easily scales to provide a secure
channel for a large volume of traffic.
