Release Notes

Parameter Description Range Default
enforce-tcp-
handshake
Prevents data from passing between two clients
until the three-way TCP handshake has been
performed. This option should be disabled when
you have mobile clients on the network as enabling
this option will cause mobility to fail. You can
enable this option if there are no mobile clients on
the network.
disabled
prohibit-ip-
spoofing
Detects IP spoofing (where an intruder sends
messages using the IP address of a trusted client).
When this option is enabled, IP and MAC addresses
are checked; possible IP spoofing attacks are
logged and an SNMP trap is sent.
disabled
prohibit-rst-re
play
Closes a TCP connection in both directions if a TCP
RST is received from either direction. You should
not enable this option unless instructed to do so by
a Dell representative.
disabled
session-idle-
timeout
Time, in seconds, that a non-TCP session can be
idle before it is removed from the session table.
You should not modify this option unless instructed
to do so by a Dell representative.
