Pardon my ignorance:
Which is the 4th layer in the TCP/IP stack? Because layer 7 filtering refers to OSI layer 7, and as far as I knew (until now) TCP/IP's layer 4 was equivalent to OSI's 7th layer (since IP does not implement all 7 OSI layers).
Of course I may be totally wrong, but since I see that some of you know, please post a reference to layer 4 filtering in IP networks.
