Confused in oracle database firewall

Dear all,
I'm working on lab for oracle database firewall. Document on Oracle database Firewall reading have a lot of limit to understand for configuring.
Anyone can help me in this lab:
situation of lab:
- Install oracle database firewall on one machine which have two networkd card, (for monitor only using span port group on switch).
- For testing, I install local monitor on SQL express 2005 server (script for SQL server), Unfortunately, In this lab document don't give a solution for communicating between SQl server and Database Firewall, How can I configure SQL server to communicate with database firewall,
thanks anh best regard,

Hello, user12326737,
I think you should check if you are following these guidelines:
When using a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or later database, ensure that the database uses mixed-mode authentication.
Local monitoring uses a source IP address of 0.0.0.0, and port 0, for statements originating from a console user or other process. The destination address (displayed in the traffic log) is the same as one of the protected databases being monitored.
Local monitoring does not record duplicate SQL statements. It only records the last SQL statement in a set of duplicate SQL statements.
Local Monitor does both a forward and reverse DNS lookup to determine if a session is from the local machine. If a DNS configuration is broken and prevents the server from doing the lookup successfully, then the Local Monitor cannot record console events. To ensure that Local Monitor records all local sessions, check that your DNS configuration is correct.
If you do, then tell me.
If you have any questions, ask.

No they cannot send you a document that is available only to those with access to MOS.
That would violate the conditions of having such service contract credentials.
Asking someone to violate such privileges is a serious offense and could get that other person's organization banned from all support and all their support contracts cancelled.
Your post is locked.
Your duplicate post that you placed into the Audit Vault forum space has been removed (it had no responses).
This thread which you had placed in the Solaris 10 forum space is moved to the Audit Vault forum space.
That's the proper location for Audit Vault questions.

Then I installed oracle enterprise linux 5.4 x86, But I can't find the "Welcome to Enterprise Linux screen" when I login to linux.(page 18 on document)
how to install database firewall 5.0?
Thanks.

Hi
The DB Firewall acts as a bridge when using in inline mode. You should not have to change anything on the Client nor on the DB Server. The Client, DB Firewall and DB Server are in the same IP Network but not "physically" connected. This mean's the DB Server is connected with the DB Firewall on one side and the Client with the DB Server on the other side.
I've configured a test environment with VMWare. To have to separated network I created a second host only network with the same IP range. DB Server and on Network Interface of the DBFW is in vmnet2 while Client, DBFirewall Console and second Network Interface is in vmnet1. When the DB Firewall or Bridge is switched off the client can not "see" the DB Server anymore. I've documented my Test Environment at http://www.oradba.ch/2011/04/oracle-database-firewall-test-environment/
I saw a test configuration from Oracle based on Virtualbox. There they used the internal network for the DB Server / DBFW NIC1 and the host only network for the client, DBFW Console and DBFW NIC2.
1. Why I am not able to see all tabs in DBFW console?
=> no idea.
2. How to integrate Oracle Database with this Firewall setting?
=> no change on the DB nor on the Client. Setup an enforcement Point to integrate it in the DBFirewal.
3. Will user access DBFW or DBFW-MS or Database?
=> The do not have to access DBFW unless they want to see the console
4. What will be the change in the TNS entries on client side?
=> no change
Cheers
Stefan

Oracle Database Vault vs Audit Vault and database firewall

Hi All,
I would like to know the main difference between Oracle Database Vault and Oracle Audit Vault and Database firewall.
I have read all the white papers and documents on them both and find them very similar in work process.
Only difference I see in the pricing.
I feel Oracle audit Vault can do all the work of Database Vault with added feature of proactive session monitoring.
If someone can help me based on their knowledge and experience it would be appreciated.
Thank you.

I have read the white papers of both Database Vault and Audit Vault
According to database Vault sessions can be managed using various roles created as per business requirements.
Audit vault offers same thing in terms of a firewall which manages and restrictions based on roles created .
From the white papers:
DATABAES VAULT:
Oracle Database Vault restricts access to specific areas in an Oracle database from any user, including users who have administrative access.
This enables you to apply fine_grained access control to your sensitive data in a variety of ways.
Oracle Database Vault enables you to create the following components to manage security for your database:
Realms
Command Rules
Factors
Rule Sets.
DATABAE AUDIT AND FIREWALL:
Oracle Audit Vault and database Firewall consolidates database activity monitoring events and audit logs. Policies enforce expected application behaviour, helping preventing SQL injection, application bypass, and other malicious activities from reaching the database while also monitoring and auditing privileged users and other activities inside the database.
To me these sound very similar of doing same work.
My apologies as I am unable to paste the whole text here and I cannot type full documents here

Oracle Audit Vault and Database Firewall implementaion

Dear All,
we are planning to implement Oracle Audit Vault and Database Firewall on 2 node 11g RAC/solaris10, please advise me to ahead in details
Thanks

Recently purchased Audit Vault and Database Firewall
My question is with Audit Vault.
All of the documentation says that i need Oracle Linux 5.8 as part of the installation. We do not have any servers now that support 5.8 currently. When I check the HCL for Oracle Linux 5.8 i see only 4 Oracle servers that support this version
Sun Server X2-4
Sun Server X2-8
Sunfire X2270 M2
Sunfire X4470
The only two servers that are currently offer for purchase by Oracle are the X2-4 and X2-8 which are way overkill both in power and price for this application.
The X2270 M2 would fit nicely, but is no longer offered for sale. In it place is the X3-2 which would fit nicely, but it listed as supporting Oracle Linux 5.8. Oracle Linux 5.9 is supported on the X3-2.
My question is will Oracle Linux 5.9 or newer install to support Audit Vault? The documentation specifies Linux 5.8. Is this flexible or not?
Thanks,

Oracle AVDF Database Firewall - Status check error

Hi all,
We are using Oracle Audit Vault & Database Firewall 12.1.0. After checking the status of the database Firewall, in the diagnostic report, we keep getting the following errors:
Checking bridges: - FAILED
Checking permissions on policy file oracle-policy_62.xml - FAILED
The first error goes away if we manually delete from system every traffic source/proxy configuration file, but as soon as we create a new one from management console, the error returns.
The second error is about the file `oracle-policy_62.xml`, we have located it in the directory /usr/local/dbfw/upload/ and as I can tell from reading it, it is a kind of configuration file of the active firewall policy on the secure target. So, what can it be?
Thank You.

Hi,
I had to login with root and do the next:
cd /
find * -mtime -1 | more
this show the file modified on the last hour .... in my case does not work because I had a problem with conditions on alerts.

Thank You.
