Firewall

Enable DoS

If enabled, DoS (Denial of Service) attacks will be

Firewall

detected and blocked. The default is enabled. It is

 

strongly recommended that this setting be left

 

enabled.

 

Note:

 

A DoS attack does not attempt to steal data or

 

damage your PCs, but overloads your Internet

 

connection so you can not use it - the service is

 

unavailable.

 

This device uses “Stateful Inspection”

 

technology. This system can detect situations

 

where individual TCP/IP packets are valid, but

 

collectively they become a DoS attack.
