30.5 Introducing ADP Profiles
An ADP profile is a set of traffic anomaly rules and protocol anomaly rules.
Traffic anomaly rules look for abnormal behavior or events such as port scanning,
sweeping or network flooding. It operates at OSI layer-2 and layer-3. Traffic anomaly
rules may be updated when you upload new firmware.
Protocol anomaly rules check for protocol compliance against the relevant RFC (Request
For Comments). Protocol anomaly detection includes HTTP Inspection, TCP Decoder,
UDP Decoder and ICMP Decoder. Protocol anomaly rules may be updated when you
upload new firmware.
Anomaly detection is in general effective against abnormal behavior while packet inspection
signatures are created for known attacks (see Chapter 29 on page 417 for information on
packet inspection).
30.5.1 Base Profiles
The ZyWALL comes with several base profiles. You use base profiles to create new profiles.
