GOAL:
What is Stateful packet filtering
FIX:
The process of forwarding or rejecting traffic based on the contents of a state table maintained by a firewall.
When stateful filtering is used, packets are only forwarded if they belong to a connection that has already been established and that is being tracked in a state table.
