#

This is the index number of the firewall log. 128 entries
are available numbered from 0 to 127. Once they are
all used, the log wraps around and the old logs are
lost.

mm:dd:yy

e.g., Jan 1 00

Time

This is the time the log was recorded in this format.
You must configure menu 24.10 for real time;
otherwise the clock will start at 2000/01/01 00:00:00
the last time the Prestige was reset.

From and To IP addresses

Packet
Information

This field lists packet information such as protocol and
src/dest port numbers (TCP, UDP), or protocol, type
and code (ICMP).

Protocol and port numbers

This field states the reason for the log; i.e., was the
rule matched, did not match or was there an attack.
The set and rule coordinates (<X, Y> where X=1,2;
Y=00~10) follow with a simple explanation. There are
two policy sets; set 1 (X = 1) is for LAN to WAN rules
and set 2 (X = 2) for WAN to LAN rules. Y represents
the rule in the set. You can configure up to 10 rules in
any set (Y = 01 to 10). Rule number 00 is the default
rule.

not match

<1,01> dest IP

This means this packet does
not match the destination IP
address in set 1, rule 1. Other
reasons (instead of dest IP)
are src IP, dest port, src port
and protocol.

Reason

This is a log for a DoS attack.

attack

land, ip spoofing, icmp echo,
icmp vulnerability, NetBIOS,
smtp illegal command,
traceroute, teardrop or syn
flood

Action

This field displays whether the packet was blocked or
forwarded. None means that no action is dictated by
this rule.

block, forward

or none

After viewing the firewall log, ENTER “y” to clear the log or “n” to retain it. With either option you will be
returned to Menu 21- Filter and Firewall Setup.
