The following settings are available on this screen:
•
Disable Port Scan and DoS Protection. DoS protection protects your LAN against
denial of service attacks such as Syn flood, Smurf Attack, Ping of Death, Teardrop Attack,
UDP Flood, ARP Attack, Spoofing ICMP, Null Scan, and many others. By default, this
check box is cleared.
•
Default DMZ Server. A demilitarized zone (DMZ) server can be helpful when you play
online games and use videoconferencing. Be careful when you use this feature because
it makes the firewall security less effective. For more information, see
Server
on page 48.
•
Respond to Ping on Internet Port. If you want the router to respond to a ping from the
Internet, select this check box. By default, this check box is cleared. Use this feature only
as a diagnostic tool because it allows your router to be discovered. Do not select this
check box unless you have a specific reason.
