[FW1] FireWall as a Oracle client

[Parvathi S <parvasar@wipsys.soft.net>]

Hi,
I have a requirement for securing the netwrok using firewall. All the
authentication and access control information  and other corporate data
are in the Oracle database. Since I want to have a centralized database,
I don't want to migrate the access control and authentication
information onto firewall-1 rulebase. Instead I expect the firewall to
dynamically read the information from the Oracle database. Is it
possible to do? If so is there any APIs for that?  If not, can it read
the access control information from a flat file?

Is there any way in which we can configure the Firewall, so that it can
read the information from the ORacle database or LDAP and not from
Rulebase. If not, is it possible to easily customize the firewall

Any help in this regard will be appreciated

Parvathi
