2.6 Security Feature Configuration

2.6.1 Security Feature Introduction

Before introducing the security features, we here first introduce the DoS. The DoS is

short for Denial of Service, which is a simple but effective destructive attack on the

internet. The server under DoS attack will drop normal user data packet due to non-stop

processing the attacker’s data packet, leading to the denial of the service and worse can

lead to leak of sensitive data of the server.

Security feature refers to applications such as protocol check which is for protecting

the server from attacks such as DoS. The protocol check allows the user to drop matched

packets based on specified conditions. The security features provide several simple and

effective protections against Dos attacks while acting no influence on the linear

forwarding performance of the switch.
