TCP Wrappers Flowchart

TCP Wrappers Flowchart
When a remote connection is requested, the access control software consults 2 files. The search stops at the first match:
-Access will be granted when a (daemon,client) pair matches an entry in the /etc/hosts.allow file
-Otherwise, access will be denied when a (daemon,client) pair matches an entry in the /etc/hosts.deny file
-Otherwise, access will be granted

ESXi doesn't use TCP wrappers
