Firewall Setup in the VigorTalk ATA-24 Series mainly consists of Denial of Service (DoS)
only. The firewall filters help to protect your computer against attack from outsiders.
The following sections will explain how to configure the Firewall. The DoS facility can detect

The DoS function helps to detect and mitigates DoS attacks. These include flooding-type
attacks and vulnerability attacks. Flooding-type attacks attempt to use up all your system's
resources while vulnerability attacks try to paralyze the system by offending the vulnerabilities
of the protocol or operation system.
In the Firewall group, click the DOS option. You will see the following page. The DoS
Defense Engine inspects each incoming packet against the attack signature database. Any
packet that may paralyze the host in the security zone is blocked. The DoS Defense Engine
also monitors traffic behavior. Any anomalous situation violating the DoS configuration is
reported and the attack is mitigated.
