Multihomed firewall (MHFW) is a type of firewall that is designed to protect a network from multiple access points. This type of firewall is also known as a network access control (NAC) firewall.

A multihomed firewall is typically deployed in a network where one or more devices are connected to the network via multiple network connections.

A multihomed firewall is designed to protect a network from multiple attacks. A multihomed firewall can protect a network from:

– Inbound attacks: A multihomed firewall can protect a network from attacks that originate from the inside of the network.

– Outbound attacks: A multihomed firewall can protect a network from attacks that originate from the outside of the network.

– Denial of service (DoS) attacks: A multihomed firewall can protect a network from attacks that attempt to stop or slow down the traffic on the network.

– Spoofing attacks: A multihomed firewall can protect a network from attacks that attempt to masquerade as one of the network’s legitimate users.

– Man-in-the-middle ( MITM ) attacks: A multihomed firewall can protect a network from attacks that are performed by a third party (man in the middle) who is between the user and the destination server.

A multihomed firewall can also provide other benefits, such as:

– Traffic shaping: A multihomed firewall can limit the amount of traffic that flows through the firewall.

– Security policy management: A multihomed firewall can help administrators manage the security policies that are applied to the network.

– Performance optimization: A multihomed firewall can help optimize the performance of the network.

A multihomed firewall can be deployed in a network where one or more devices are connected to the network via multiple network connections.
