attempts or commands, and the names of the users participating in this illegal process.Answer C is incorrect. Hardware firewall is defined as the important part of the system and network
set-up on a broadband connection. It can be effective with small or no configuration, and is used to
protect every machine on a local network. The hardware firewalls will have at least four network
ports for connecting to other computers. This type of firewall uses packet filtering for checking the
header of a packet in order to check its source and destination. The information obtained in this
manner is compared to a set of predefined or user-created rules and then the packet is forwarded or
dropped.
