Answer / guest
Answer: A
The software for appliances is embedded into chips.
Firmware-based firewall products cannot be moved to higher
capacity servers. Firewall software that sits on an
operating system always can be scalable due to the ability
to enhance the power of servers. Host-based firewalls
operate on top of the server operating system and can be
scalable. A demilitarized zone is a model of firewalls
implementation and is not a firewall architecture.
