the Internet (WAN) interface.

Disabling ping on the Internet (WAN) network interface filters out ICMP-based trace route traffic and

gives implicit protection to the ADVANTA 2100 and the corporate network behind it from many ICMP

Echo message based cyber attacks (Ping of Death, Ping Flood, Smurf, etc.).

The

OLICIES

This configuration section describes the various NetVanta 2000 series policies, including user access and

VPN policies, and how to create and maintain different policy component tables. To make the policies

configuration process easier, the NetVanta 2000 series is equipped with policy component tables that store

configuration parameters that are used repetitively during configuration. These tables are divided into six

categories: Users, User Groups, IP Address, Services, Schedule, and NAT. Policy component tables make

policy configuration quick and dynamic.The policy component tables and their respective applications are

discussed in this chapter.

The Policies Configuration page is displayed by clicking the

P

OLICIES

menu found on the Administration

Console. All access policies and policy component tables are accessed and configured through the

P

menu. These include Corporate Inbound and Outbound policies, VPN policies, and User-Group

Access policies.
