Name

The (read-only) signature name identifies a specific signature targeted at a specific

 

intrusion. Click the hyperlink for more detailed information on the intrusion.

ID

Each intrusion has a unique identification number. This number may be searched at

 

myZyXEL.com for more detailed information.

Severity

This field displays the level of threat that the intrusion may pose. See Table 78 on page

 

244 for more information on intrusion severity.

Platform

This field displays the computer or network device operating system that the intrusion

 

targets or is vulnerable to the intrusion. These icons represent a Windows operating

 

system, a UNIX-based operating system and a network device respectively.

 

 

Active

Select the check box in the heading row to automatically select all check boxes and

 

enable all signatures.

 

Clear it to clear all entries and disable all signatures on the current page. For example,

 

you could clear all check boxes for signatures that targets operating systems not in

 

your network. This would speed up the IDP signature checking process.

 

Alternatively, you may select or clear individual entries. The check box becomes gray

 

when you select the check box.

 

If you edited any of the check boxes in this column on the current page, use the check

 

box in the heading row to switch between the settings (last partial edited, all selected

 

and all cleared).
