Configuring the Wireless Barricade
56
• SPI and Anti-DoS firewall protection (Default: Enabled)
–The Wireless Barricade Intrusion Detection Feature limits
access for incoming traffic at the WAN port. When the SPI
feature is turned on, all incoming packets will be blocked
except for those types marked with a check in the Stateful
Packet Inspection section.
• RIP Defect (Default: Enabled) – If an RIP request packet is
not replied to by the router, it will stay in the input queue and
not be released. Accumulated packets could cause the input
queue to fill, causing severe problems for all protocols.
Enabling this feature prevents the packets accumulating.
• Discard Ping from WAN (Default: Disabled)
– Prevents a PING on the Gateway’s WAN port from being
routed to the network.
