fin-flood threshold
Use fin-flood threshold to set the global threshold for triggering FIN flood attack prevention.
Use undo fin-flood threshold to restore the default.
Syntax
fin-flood threshold threshold-value
undo fin-flood threshold
Default
The global threshold is 1000 for triggering FIN flood attack prevention.

Parameters
threshold-value: Specifies the threshold value. The value range is 1 to 1000000 in units of FIN
packets sent to an IP address per second.
Usage guidelines
The global threshold applies to global FIN flood attack detection. Adjust the threshold according to
the application scenarios. If the number of FIN packets sent to a protected server, such as an HTTP
or FTP server, is normally large, set a large threshold. A small threshold might affect the server
services. For a network that is unstable or susceptible to attacks, set a small threshold.
With global FIN flood attack detection configured, the device is in attack detection state. When the
sending rate of FIN packets to an IP address reaches the threshold, the device enters prevention
state and takes the specified actions. When the rate is below the silence threshold (three-fourths of
the threshold), the device returns to the attack detection state.

policy atk-policy-1.
