9.4 Attack

Alert

Attack alerts are real-time reports of DoS attacks. In the Attack Alert screen, shown later, you may choose
to generate an alert whenever an attack is detected. For DoS attacks, the Prestige uses thresholds to determine
when to drop sessions that do not become fully established. These thresholds apply globally to all sessions.

You can use the default threshold values, or you can change them to values more suitable to your security
requirements.
