FIGURE 12.6 OUTPUT FOR INTERIOR ROUTER EXAMPLE

Slot1_in, rule 0, prohibits any incoming packets with source IP addresses of the internal network. Since the addresses used for internal networks cannot be routed on the Internet, they cannot be valid unless there is a leak of traffic through another router to the perimeter network.

Imagine that, as shown in the figure, the network is expanded and another range of IP addresses is used (not a sub-network). Rule 0 in the list Slot1_in will not protect this network. Either another rule can be added to this list, or the new router can filter packets into its area (or both).
