Hi

I have no idea!!! Please, Help me...

"Firewall is between two devices and TCP handshake thing takes place and firewall do not recognize ACK bit in TCP handshake thing. What will happen"?

By default the TCP normalizer will drop the packet. If you want to override this setting you can use the a tcp-map.
