DoS Protection

On the Firewall / DoS Protection page, you can configure protection against DoS attacks of
different types.
DoS (Denial of Service) attacks are network attacks during which the router and devices connected
to it are flooded with more requests than they can handle, which leads to significant reduce of
performance or even their malfunction.
To enable protection against DoS attacks, move the Enable switch to the right. Upon that the Per-
source IP Flood and Other Settings sections are displayed on the page.
