Stateful Packet Inspection
Your device monitors and limits the access of incoming traffic from the Internet with
SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection). This allows it to identify and block certain types of
attack such as Denial-of-Service (DoS). A typical DoS attack involves a remote com-
puter paralysing a system and announcing that it is acting for the paralysed device
in order to receive the data meant for it. For the level
Custom
you can specify your-
self whether you wish to activate SPI on your device and which exceptions you wish
to make.
