CHAPTER 4

4.3.7.1 Firewall Protection

The Gateway's firewall can block common hacker attacks,

including IP Spoofing, Land Attack, Ping of Death, IP with

zero length, Smurf Attack, UDP port loopback, Snork

Attack, TCP null scan, and TCP SYN flooding. The firewall

does not significantly affect system performance, so we

advise leaving it enabled to protect your network users.
