5.1.1 Subscription Services Available on the ZyWALL

At the time of writing, the ZyWALL can use anti-virus and IDP (Intrusion Detection and
Prevention) subscription services.
Anti-virus allows the ZyWALL to scan packets for computer viruses and deletes the infected
packets.
IDP allows the ZyWALL to detect malicious or suspicious packets and respond immediately.
The ID&P and anti-virus features use the same signature files on the ZyWALL to detect and
scan for viruses. After the service is activated, the ZyWALL downloads the up-to-date
signature files from the update server (http://myupdate.zywall.zyxel.com).
You will get automatic e-mail notification of new signature releases from mySecurityZone
after you activate the IDP/Anti-virus service. You can also check for new signature or virus
updates at http://mysecurity.zyxel.com.
See the chapters about anti-virus and IDP for more information.
