Autosys Information and risks

[spclfx <jessevalentin () yahoo com>]

Hello,
   
  I am looking for some information on Autosys and some of the risks associated with allowing this to run in an 
environment.
   
  Is it necessary to allow this traffic to run bi-directionally even with a stateful firewall? I am unsure if monitored 
machines ever need to initiate separate connections back to the master autosys server.
   
  Does anyone know if Cisco PIX firewalls can maintain state information for these connections? I know PIX fw's dont 
maintain state for certain types of protocols, was wondering if Autosys traffic was included.
   
  Does anyone know of a location where I can get some technical whitepapers on this service and how it functions from a 
lower layer perspective? 
   
  Thanks,
   
  JV
