29.3 Introducing IDP Profiles
An IDP profile is a set of packet inspection signatures.
Packet inspection signatures examine packet content for malicious data. Packet inspection
applies to OSI (Open System Interconnection) layer-4 to layer-7 contents. You need to
subscribe for IDP service in order to be able to download new signatures.
In general, packet inspection signatures are created for known attacks while anomaly detection
looks for abnormal behavior (see Chapter 30 on page 513 for information on anomaly
detection).
29.3.1 Base Profiles
The ZyWALL comes with several base profiles. You use base profiles to create new profiles.
