SunScreen 3.2 Administrator's Overview

udp_stateless State Engine

The udp_stateless state engine is used for stateless UDP session filtering. This engine is included for backwards compatibility with older SunScreen products. It has been replaced in most cases with stateful UDP filtering. Because this engine is stateless UDP packet filtering, services defined using it cannot safely validate that the responses go to the same port as the request.

The discriminator for the udp_stateless state engine is the port number of the UDP service.

The udp_stateless state engine has no parameters.
