Configuring Load-Time Parameters (NSM Procedure)

The IDP SM and sensor settings specify how the security module(s) on the ISG Series
devices and IDP sensors handle traffic. When you add IDP, default values for all security
module parameters are used. As you fine-tune a security policy to fit network traffic, you
may want to edit these default values. If you make changes to the default settings, the
changes only affect that device to which the security module settings apply. For detailed
information on fields, refer to the NSM online Help or the IDP Concepts and Examples
Guide.

Load-time parameters include options for tuning IDP performance. In general, you modify
these settings only if you encounter performance issues. These options control the security
module functions when it first powers on.
To configure load-time parameters:
In NSM Device Manager, double-click the IDP device for which you want to configure
