Packet filters act by inspecting the "packets" which represent the basic unit of data transfer between computers on the Internet. If a packet matches the packet filter's set of rules, the packet filter will drop (silently discard) the packet, or reject it (discard it, and send "error responses" to the source). This type of packet filtering pays no attention to whether a packet is part of an existing stream of traffic (it stores no information on connection "state"). Instead, it filters each packet based only on information contained in the packet itself (most commonly using a combination of the packet's source and destination address, its protocol, and, for TCP and UDP traffic, which comprises most internet communication, the port number).

Computer History

Monday, May 12, 2008
The first demonstrations of computer timesharing systems are performed in the summer of 1962. A time sharing operating system permits each user of a computer to behave as though he were in sole control of the computer. The concepts of time sharing are influenced by the U.S. Air Force's SAGE project at MIT. The primary developers of timesharing are MIT Professor Fernando Corbato and researchers John McCarthy and Ed Fredkin.
