SunScreen 3.2 Installation Guide

Routing and Stealth Mode Installation Summary

See "Routing and Stealth Mode Installation Summary" for information on an IKE and SKIP routing mode installation and "Routing Mode Installation Summary" for a SKIP routing mode installation. Also, "Stealth Mode Installation Summary" for a SKIP stealth mode installation.

When installing a Screen in stealth mode, when asked if you want to harden the Screen, understand that hardening is an option and if chosen automatically removes any Solaris software files and packages that might otherwise make your system vulnerable to an attack. The hardening process can be performed during installation or at a later time by running the script on the command line: /usr/lib/sunscreen/lib/harden_os.


Caution - Caution -

Once you harden your Screen, it becomes a dedicated firewall and cannot be used for any other purpose without first reinstalling the Solaris software.
