1. Defining Roles and Accountability
It is important that both parties to an SLA understand the respective roles and responsibilities defined in the agreement. A number of industry factors have made establishing roles, responsibilities, and performance (and financial) accountability increasingly difficult on both the network and services side of the SLA equation.

2. Managing Expectations
In general, executing an SLA contractually sets the customer’s expectations regarding a product’s delivery. Once defined, agreed to, and executed, the terms and conditions that make up the bulk of the SLA contract become the customer’s entitlements with respect to the product. This guarantee enables the customer to plan and operate his or her business with a reasonable level of confidence in the availability, performance, or timeframe of a contracted product or service.

3. Controlling Implementation and Execution

Firewall Management:
- Organizations and agencies should use firewalls to secure their Internet connections and their connections to other networks. At remote locations, users should use personal fire-walls and firewall appliances to secure their connections to the Internet and Internet Service Providers.

- Organizations should view firewalls as their first line of defense from external threats; inter-nal security must still be a top priority. Internal systems must be patched and configured in a timely manner.

- Organizations must monitor incident response team reports and security websites for infor-mation about current attacks and vulnerabilities. The firewall policy should be updated as necessary. A formal process should be used for managing the addition and deletion of fire-wall rules.

- Organizations should recognize that all system administration, especially firewall admini-stration, requires significant time and training. Organizations should ensure that their ad-ministrators receive regular training so as to stay current with threats and vulnerabilities.

Firewall Configuration:
- Filter packets and protocols
- Perform Stateful inspection of connections
- Perform proxy operations on selected applications
