I hate to be the "RTFM" rain on the parade, but... Did you retrieve and
read the FAQ and/or peruse the archives you were informed about when you
joined the list? It has a good summary of many of the important terms and
concepts.
If you didn't read the message you got when you joined the list, send the
command "info firewalls" to "majordomo @
greatcircle .
com" and read the reply.
