Parameters
high: Specifies the high level. None of the currently supported single-packet attacks belongs to this
level.
info: Specifies the informational level. For example, large ICMP packet attack is on this level.
low: Specifies the low level. For example, the traceroute attack is on this level.
medium: Specifies the medium level. For example, the WinNuke attack is on this level.
Usage guidelines
According to their severity, single-packet attacks are divided into four levels: info, low, medium, and
high. Enabling signature detection for a specific level enables signature detection for all
single-packet attacks on the level. Use the signature level action command to specify the actions
against single-packet attacks on a specific level. If you enable signature detection for a single-packet
attack also by using the signature detect command, action parameters in the signature detect
command take effect.
To display the level to which a single-packet attack belongs, use the display attack-defense policy
command.
