A stateful server loses all its volatile state in a crash. * Restore state using a recovery protocol based on a dialog with clients, or abort operations that were underway when the crash occurred. * Server needs to be aware of client failures in order to reclaim space allocated to record the state of crashed client processes (orphan detection and elimination).

Is there a potential for a denial of service attack against a stateful firewall that would not occur in a stateless firewall?

Stateful firewalls use session-based rules to control traffic. The disadvantage of a stateful firewall is that it can be vulnerable to Denial of Service (DoS) attacks if a lot of new connections are opened very fast.

Which firewall feature is used to track communication channels and provides additional security for connectionless protocols?

Stateful Inspection. A stateful inspection firewall uses a technique known as stateful packet filtering to keep track of communication channels. This is different when compared to basic firewalls. Once the packet and connection has been sent, a normal firewall will not remember the communication channel, whereas the stateful inspection firewall will. This also proves useful to protect connectionless communication protocols.
