Notes About the ZyWALL Anti-Virus
The following lists important notes about the anti-virus scanner:
1 The ZyWALL anti-virus scanner can detect polymorphic viruses.
2 When a virus is detected, an alert message is displayed in Microsoft Windows
computers. Refer to
if your Windows computer does not
display the alert messages.
3 Changes to the ZyWALL’s anti-virus settings affect new sessions (not the sessions that
already existed before you applied the changed settings).
4 The ZyWALL does not scan the following file/traffic types:
• Simultaneous downloads of a file using multiple connections. For example, when you
use FlashGet to download sections of a file simultaneously.
• Encrypted traffic. This could be password-protected files or VPN traffic where the
ZyWALL is not the endpoint (pass-through VPN traffic).
• Traffic through custom (non-standard) ports. The only exception is FTP traffic. The
ZyWALL scans whatever port number is specified for FTP in the ALG screen.
• ZIP file(s) within a ZIP file.
