A system designed to prevent unauthorized access to or from a private network. Firewalls can be hardware and software, or a combination of both. Firewalls are frequently used to prevent unauthorized Internet users from accessing private networks connected to the Internet, especially intranets. All messages entering or leaving the intranet pass through the firewall, which examines each message and blocks those that do not meet the specified security criteria.
A good example is Cisco pix firewall, also Window XP SP2 has firewall software in it.
