- Description: Introducing rewalls and other choke point controls in existing networks is often problematic, because in the majority of cases there is already production tra c in place that cannot be interrupted. This often necessitates the time consuming manual analysis of network tra c in order to ensure that when a new system is installed, there is no disruption to legitimate ows. To improve upon this situation it is proposed that a system facilitating network tra c analysis and rewall rule set generation is developed.

- Description: The introduction of network filters and chokes such as firewalls in exist-ing operational network is often problematic, due to considerations that need to be made to minimise the interruption of existent legitimate traf-fic. This often necessitates the time consuming manual analysis of net-work traffic over a period of time in order to generate and vet the rule bases to minimise disruption of legitimate flows. To improve upon this, a system facilitating network traffic analysis and firewall rule set genera-tion is proposed. The system shall be capable to deal with the ever in-creasing traffic volumes and help to provide and maintain high uptimes. A high level overview of the design of the components is presented. Additions to the system are scoring metrics which may assist the admin-istrator to optimise the rule sets for the most efficient matching of flows, based on traffic volume, frequency or packet count. A third party pack-age-Firewall Builder-is used to target the resultant rule sets to a number of different firewall and network Filtering platforms.
