SYN Protection
The network ports might be used by hackers to attack the device in a SYN attack,
which consumes TCP resources (buffers) and CPU power.
Since the CPU is protected using SCT, TCP traffic to the CPU is limited. However, if
one or more ports are attacked with a high rate of SYN packets, the CPU receives
only the attacker packets, thus creating Denial-of-Service.
When using the SYN protection feature, the CPU counts the SYN packets
ingressing from each network port to the CPU per second.
If the number is higher than the threshold, a SYSLOG message is generated, but
the packets are not blocked.
To configure SYN protection:
STEP 1
Click
Security
>
Denial of Service Prevention
>
SYN Protection
.
STEP 2
Enter the parameters.
