17.16 Configuring Security

To change your ZyWALL's Security settings, click REMOTE MGNT, then the Security tab. The screen
appears as shown.
If an outside user attempts to probe an unsupported port on your ZyWALL, an ICMP response packet is
automatically returned. This allows the outside user to know the ZyWALL exists. The ZyWALL series
support anti-probing, which prevents the ICMP response packet from being sent. This keeps outsiders from
discovering your ZyWALL when unsupported ports are probed.
The following table describes the fields in this screen.

Internet Control Message Protocol is a message control and error-reporting protocol
between a host server and a gateway to the Internet. ICMP uses Internet Protocol (IP)
datagrams, but the messages are processed by the TCP/IP software and directly
apparent to the application user.
