This is a rather lengthy patch, that attempts to fix several problems: - Reduce repetition. There are several paragraphs in the original text that are repeated throughout the sections - Markup fixes. Replace single quotes with tags, add s and several other changes to improve markup consistency - Convert to passive voice where possible, eliminate few first person references - Several grammar and language fixes - The original text implied that the same TCP packet would go back and forth between source and destination. Rephrase relevant paragraphs to clarify these are different packets - Includes many fixes submitted in a PR [1] and a link fix submitted on -doc [2] - Numerous other smaller changes, too many to mention here PR: docs/131568 [1] Submitted by: Chris Pepper [1] Submitted by: Phillip Nordwall [2] Reviewed by: trhodes, keramida Revision Changes Path 1.87 +452 -502 doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/firewalls/chapter.sgml
