Is there a difference (semantically) between the terms:
My $.02 worth...
Firewall PolicyAn operating posture taken that dictates how you generally operate, as
in "Anything not specifically allowed is denied," vs. "Anything not
specifically blocked is allowed." I would extrapolate this to include
more than just your "firewall" device, but rather more of a "General
Security Policy," of which your Firewall Policy is a subset.
Firewall ConfigurationHow the firewall is "set up" (rules, NATs, etc) to enforce the "Policy"
(see as defined above)
Firewall Policy ConfigurationSame as Firewall Configuration
Firewall Configuration PolicySame as Firewall Policy
