Abstract

Configuration of firewalls is a task which every System Administrator need to perform from time to time. Every firewall comes with its own set of default rules which need to be updated from time to time. A thorough analysis of the user behavior in an organization or institution would help the Administrator to understand the needs of the organization in a much better manner. This paper aims at understanding the user behavior of a particular network over a period of time and accordingly redefine the rules. This upgradation of rules helps in efficient utilization of resources in the organization. This also ensures even distribution of resources of organization giving equal usage opportunities to all users.
