One advantage of an application-level firewall is the ability to do what?
monitor tcp handshaking.
filter packets at the network level.
filter specific commands, such as http:post.
retain state information for each packet.
EDIT: An application level firewall is a firewall where one application-level (i.e., not kernel) process is used to forward each session that an internal user makes to a network resource on the public network. Application level firewalls are considered to be the most secure type of firewall, but they incur a significant performance penalty. The penalty arises because a new process must be started each time a user starts a new session. Source: http://hitachi-id.com/concepts/applicationlevelfirewall.html
