- joneholland 6y agoAny time you traverse a firewall or a NAT you’ll run into issues if you have a massive amount of open sessions and you are dealing with a stateful FW. Just because you haven’t encountered it doesn’t mean it’s not there, it’s probably just properly tuned and balanced for the load.
- foota 6y agoYeah, I believe that. I'm not sure this applies to something like AWS though, where firewall like capability is provided via a layer spread over thousands or greater of instances.
- joneholland 6y agoThe virtual firewalls running on the virtual networks in AWS for their customers are not the same as the layer 2 firewalls that exist in their data centers internally.
