These packets traveling over the public internet can have an impact on the security of a private network…So in essence, it is a software or firmware which enforces and gives restrictions on which data packets are granted access to exit or enter a network.
We also plan, install and manage networks such as:

This would allow for ease of communication with other IP networks.
