3.5.9 DoS Settings

A Denial of Service attack is one of the popular hacking methods. The attacker tries to make
some resource too busy to answer legitimate requests, or to deny legitimate users access to
your machine. WDAP-2000PE can be configured to prevent such attack.
Authentication fails
Broadcast storm filtering
Check this if you want to enable RADIUS authentication using the
primary/secondary Radius Server. If both are selected, the pri-
mary server will be tried first.
The IP address of the RADIUS server.
The port number that your RADIUS server uses for authentica-
tion. The default setting is 1812.
This is used by your RADIUS server in the Shared Secret field in
Radius protocol messages. The shared secret configured in the
WDAP-2000PE and the RADIUS server must be identical. The
shared secret can contain up to 64 alphanumeric characters.
The number of times the WDAP-2000PE should attempt to
contact the primary server before giving up.
You can set a maximum failure count. When the number of times
that a WLAN station fails to authenticate itself reaches this count,
the station (identified by its MAC address) will be put into a
rejectee list. So the station will not be even authenticated any
more.
Once a station is put into the rejectee list, you can remove it from
the table at the bottom of this page.
When the broadcast traffic reaches the configured degree (e.g.
High, Low), any more broadcast packets will be dropped. Higher
degree allows less broadcast traffic pass through.
