Every Raptor 6.0 firewall comes equipped with application-level proxies for managing CIFS/SMB, DNS, FTP, Gopher, HTTP, H.323, NTP, NNTP, Ping, realaudio/video, SMTP, and telnet access. The standard proxies provide arguably the most secure means of passing traffic through the Raptor Firewall, as they are governed by authorization rules, perform various application-layer security functions, and perform address hiding and traffic logging.
