QuestionQ127

Security Policy Management

What is the distinction between the Access Control policy and the NAT policy?

  • A The Access Control policy is a collection of rules that control network access. The NAT rules can be used to make the gateway change IP addresses and port numbers in packets.
  • B The Access Control policy is an enforced on the Security Gateway. The NAT rules are enforced on a separate NAT Gateway.
  • C The Access Control policy is a collection of rules that control application and web site access. The NAT rules allow or deny connections on the gateway and can also change IP addresses and port numbers in packets.
  • D The Access Control policy is a collection of rules that mostly blocks network access. The NAT rules are used to allow access through the gateway. A NAT rule causes the gateway to allow access to or from the IP addresses and translates the packet according to the rule.
Explanation

An Access Control policy is a rule base that controls network access by allowing or blocking traffic. NAT rules translate the source or destination IP address and can translate services, including port numbers. NAT does not replace the Access Control policy’s authorization decision.
