Configuring Inspection of Basic Internet

Protocols
This chapter describes how to configure application layer protocol inspection. Inspection engines are
required for services that embed IP addressing information in the user data packet or that open secondary

instead of passing the packet through the fast path. As a result, inspection engines can affect overall
throughput.
