Abstract

In this paper, we present the merits of centralized approach for managing heterogeneous firewalls using multi-agents and implement the prototype of the central policy database that is a component of the PB-ISMSF (Policy-based Integrated Security Management System for Firewalls). Multi-agents initiate with SNMP security MIB, monitors the status of firewalls, and executes control requests from the PB-ISMSF engine. And also, we classified the policy conflicts, the condition of policy conflicts and briefly described the resolution methods for specified policy conflicts.
