Describe the type of firewall in which software that hides an IP address is used to mediate a connection between two NIC's. (Select two)
Screened-subnet firewall
Stealth firewall
Circuit-level firewall
NAT gateway
Proxy firewall
Dual-homed firewall
A proxy firewall commonly uses two network interface cards which qualifies it as a dual-homed firewall. One NIC is assigned to the external interface, another NIC is assigned to the internal interface, and the proxy software sits between them mediating requests. They can, in addition to offering caching capabilities, transparently repackage and hide IP addresses. Source: CompTIA Security+ SY0-501 Exam Guide by Emmett Dulaney and Chuck Easttom.
