3
Limit who can access your router.
4
Don't enable any local service (such as NTP) that you don't use. Any enabled service could present
a potential security risk. A determined hacker might be able to find creative ways to misuse the
enabled services to access the firewall or the network.
5
For local services that are enabled, protect against misuse. Protect by configuring the services to
communicate only with specific peers, and protect by configuring rules to block packets for the
services at specific interfaces.
6
Protect against IP spoofing by making sure the firewall is active.
7
Keep the firewall in a secured (locked) room.

16.3 Services Screen
If an outside user attempts to probe an unsupported port on your EMG3425-Q10A, an ICMP
response packet is automatically returned. This allows the outside user to know the EMG3425-Q10A
exists. Use this screen to prevent the ICMP response packet from being sent. This keeps outsiders
from discovering your EMG3425-Q10A when unsupported ports are probed.
You can also use this screen to enable service blocking, enter/delete/modify the services you want
to block and the date/time you want to block them.
