Configuring the Firewall
Your Router is equipped with a firewall that will protect your network
from a wide array of common hacker attacks including:
• IP Spoofing
• SYN flood
• Land Attack
• UDP flooding
• Ping of Death (PoD)
• Tear Drop Attack
• Denial of Service (DoS)
• ICMP defect
• IP with zero length
• RIP defect
• Smurf Attack
• Fragment flooding
• TCP Null Scan
The firewall also masks common ports that are frequently used to
attack networks� These ports appear to be “Stealth”, meaning that for
all intents and purposes, they do not exist to a would-be hacker� You
can turn the firewall function off if needed; however, while disabling the
firewall protection will not leave your network completely vulnerable to
hacker attacks, it is recommended that you leave the firewall enabled�
