Select this to prevent outsiders from discovering your ZyXEL Device by sending
requests to unsupported port numbers. If an outside user attempts to probe an
unsupported port on your ZyXEL Device, an ICMP response packet is
automatically returned. This allows the outside user to know the ZyXEL Device
exists. Your ZyXEL Device supports anti-probing, which prevents the ICMP
response packet from being sent. This keeps outsiders from discovering your
ZyXEL Device when unsupported ports are probed.
If you clear this, your ZyXEL Device replies with an ICMP Port Unreachable
packet for a port probe on unused UDP ports and with a TCP Reset packet for a
port probe on unused TCP ports.
