Enabling advanced protection settings
Advanced protection settings help you protect your network beyond attacks that
can be identified by atomic signatures.
IP spoofing protection
Any non-broadcast or multicast packet arriving on a WAN interface with a
source IP address that matches any internal subnet is blocked and flagged as an
IP spoofing attempt. Internal subnets are derived from the LAN side subnet
address of the appliance and the static route entries on the appliance for the
LAN interface.
Likewise, any non-broadcast or non-multicast traffic that arrives at the internal
or wireless interface with a source IP address that does not match any
predefined internal network is blocked and logged as an internal IP spoofing
attempt. Internal networks are derived from static routes on the unit and the
internal LAN/WLAN address of the unit. Spoof protection can be disabled for the
internal LANs and WAN.
To configure IP spoof protection
See
“IDS Protection tab field descriptions”
on page 205.
