leader in the field of virus detection. The database provides protection against virtually all known
virus threats including trojans, worms, backdoor exploits and others. The database is also
thoroughly tested to provide near zero false positives.
NetDefendOS Anti-Virus scanning is a subscription based service and yearly subscriptions can be
purchased from your local D-Link agent. After purchase, you will receive a code which is then used
for activating IDP.
A subscription means that the SafeStream database is updated on a daily basis from D-Link servers
with any new virus signatures that become available. Older signatures are seldom retired but instead
are replaced with more generic signatures covering several viruses.
Anti-Virus Settings
The NetDefendOS Anti-Virus feature provides the option to scan any file downloads for viruses.
The downloads that are scanned are those that pass through the WAN interface.
The page in the web interface for Anti-Virus scanning is divided into 3 sections:
A. Anti-Virus Database
B. Anti-Virus Scanning
C. Scan Exclusion Control

B. Anti-Virus Scanning
This part of the interface is where virus scanning is enabled. Any combination of the HTTP, FTP,
SMTP or POP3 protocols can be selected. If none is selected, no virus scanning will take place.
C. Scan Exclusion Control
It is possible to explicitly exclude some file types from virus scanning. Virus scanning takes up
processing resources so expanding this list can help increase throughput. Some filetypes are
excluded by default.
When using the Add button, the filetype should not have a leading period. In other words, if adding
PDF files, specify pdf and not .pdf.
File Type Checking
Some viruses can try to hide inside files by using a misleading name. For example, a file might
pretend to be a .pdf file by using the name myfile.pdf but actually contain a virus. If .pdf files are on
