Description
Minimum interval between consecutive small packets (microseconds) / Maximum interval
between consecutive small packets (microseconds)–Controls the minimum and maximum
intervals (in microseconds) between the arrival of two consecutive small packets in suspected
interactive traffic. If the IDP device sees small packets arrive in less than the minimum or more than
the maximum number of microseconds, it does not consider the traffic to be interactive.
The defaults are 20,000 and 2,00,00,000. This means that consecutive small packets must arrive
within 20,000 to 2,00,00,000 microseconds to be considered interactive.
Byte threshold for packet sizes in a backdoor connection–Controls the maximum number of
bytes a TCP packet must contain before the IDP device uses the packet for backdoor detection
heuristics. The default is 20 bytes.
Minimum number of data carrying TCP packets–Controls the minimum number of data-carrying
TCP packets in suspected interactive traffic. The default is 20 packets.
Minimum percentage of back-to-back small packets–Controls the minimum percentage of
consecutive small packets in suspected interactive traffic. If the IDP device sees less than this
percentage, it does not report a backdoor event. The default is 20%.
Ratio of small packets to the total packets (percentage)–Controls the minimum percentage of
small packets that the IDP device uses for backdoor detection heuristics. If the IDP device sees less
than this minimum, it does not report a backdoor event. The default is 20%.
