The Icmp Protection Screen; The Arp Protection Screen - ZyXEL Communications LTE3202-M430 User Manual

9.3 The ICMP Protection Screen

If an outside user attempts to probe an unsupported port on your LTE3202-M430, an ICMP response
packet is automatically returned. This allows the outside user to know the LTE3202-M430 exists. Use this
screen to prevent the ICMP response packet from being sent. This keeps outsiders from discovering your
LTE3202-M430 when unsupported ports are probed.
Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) 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.

spoofing. Click Configuration > Firewall > ARP Protection to open the following screen.
