Chapter 43 Security Feature Configuration 
43.1 Introduction to Security Feature 
Before introducing the security features, we here first introduce the DoS. The DoS is short for 
Denial of Service, which is a simple but effective destructive attack on the internet. The server 
under DoS attack will drop normal user data packet due to non-stop processing the attacker’s 
data packet, leading to the denial of the service and worse can lead to leak of sensitive data of 
the server. 
Security feature refers to applications such as protocol check which is for protecting the server 
from attacks such as DoS. The protocol check allows the user to drop matched packets based 
on specified conditions. The security features provide several simple and effective protections 
against  Dos  attacks  while  acting  no  influence  on  the  linear  forwarding  performance  of  the 
switch. 
43.2 Security Feature Configuration 
43.2.1 Prevent IP Spoofing Function Configuration Task Sequence 
Command 
Explanation 
Global Mode 
[no] dosattack-check srcip-equal-dstip 
enable 
Enable/disable the function of checking if the IP 
source  address  is  the  same  as  the  destination 
address. 
43.2.2 Prevent ICMP Fragment Attack Function Configuration Task 
Sequence 
1.  Enable the prevent ICMP fragment attack function 
2.  Configure the max permitted ICMPv4 net load length 
Command 
Explanation 
Global Mode 
[no] dosattack-check icmp-attacking 
enable 
Enable/disable  the  prevent  ICMP  fragment 
attack function. 
dosattack-check icmpv4-size <size> 
Configure  the  max  permitted  ICMPv4  net  load 
length. This command has not effect when used 
separately,  the  user  have  to  enable  the 
dosattack-check icmp-attacking enable.
