TotalSecure Configuration Task List

•Use the IPS Global Setting to enable the option Prevent All for all three IPS Signature Groups.

Now all three IPS Signature Groups [High, Medium resp. Low Priority] will be Prevented, which will Prevent quite a lot flowing in the network, for example:

•MSN Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, AIM, IRC and other Instant Messaging application will not work as will not any Peer-to-Peer applications.

•A Terminal Service client will not be able to connect.

•The VoIP Skype-application will not be able to connect

•Zone Transfers will be Prevented

After these settings are implemented, the network administrator must keep a very close eye on the logs of the SonicWALL appliance for some time and there possibly could be some enraged users for a brief period of time.

As soon as traffic is Prevented by the IPS, a log-entry will be written to the logs. Depending whether the prevented traffic is valid or not, the network administrator has the option to disable the Prevention of that particular IPS-event, directly from the log viewer.

If the user tries to log in to a blocked site, an error message will appear.
