uStateful Packet Inspection

Your device monitors and limits the access of incoming traffic from the Internet with SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection). This allows it to identify and block certain types of attack such as Denial-of-Service (DoS). A typical DoS attack involves a remote com- puter paralysing a system and announcing that it is acting for the paralysed device in order to receive the data meant for it. For the level Custom you can specify your- self whether you wish to activate SPI on your device and which exceptions you wish to make.

ìActivate or deactivate Stateful Packet Inspection for your device's Internet connec- tion.

ìSelect the services for which you also wish to allow incoming Traffic if it has been initiated by a client in your LAN. If you select the All option at the end of the list you can allow all services.

ìClick OK to apply the settings.
