Chapter 10 Firewall Screens
One Minute High
This is the rate of new half-open sessions that causes the firewall to start deleting
half-open sessions. When the rate of new connection attempts rises above this
number, the ZyWALL deletes half-open sessions as required to accommodate
new connection attempts.
The numbers, say 80 in the
One Minute Low
field and 100 in this field, cause the
ZyWALL to start deleting half-open sessions when more than 100 session
establishment attempts have been detected in the last minute, and to stop
deleting half-open sessions when fewer than 80 session establishment attempts
have been detected in the last minute.
Maximum
Incomplete Low
This is the number of existing half-open sessions that causes the firewall to stop
deleting half-open sessions. The ZyWALL continues to delete half-open requests
as necessary, until the number of existing half-open sessions drops below this
number.
Maximum
Incomplete High
This is the number of existing half-open sessions that causes the firewall to start
deleting half-open sessions. When the number of existing half-open sessions
rises above this number, the ZyWALL deletes half-open sessions as required to
accommodate new connection requests. Do not set
Maximum Incomplete High
to lower than the current
Maximum
Incomplete
Low
number.
The above values, say 80 in the
Maximum Incomplete Low
field and 100 in this
field, cause the ZyWALL to start deleting half-open sessions when the number of
existing half-open sessions rises above 100, and to stop deleting half-open
sessions with the number of existing half-open sessions drops below 80.
TCP Maximum
Incomplete
This is the number of existing half-open TCP sessions with the same destination
host IP address that causes the firewall to start dropping half-open sessions to
that same destination host IP address. Enter a number between 1 and 256. As a
general rule, you should choose a smaller number for a smaller network, a slower
system or limited bandwidth.
