    Virus Throttling General Operation of Connection-Rate Filtering General Operation of Connection-Rate Filtering Connection-Rate filtering enables notification of worm-like behavior detected in inbound routed traffic and, depending on how you configure the feature, also throttles or blocks such traffic. This feature also provides a method for allowing legitimate, high connection-rate traffic from a given host while still protecting your network from possibly malicious traffic from other hosts.

    Virus Throttling General Operation of Connection-Rate Filtering Sensitivity to Connection Rate Detection The switch includes a global sensitivity setting that enables adjusting the ability of connection-rate filtering to detect relatively high instances of con­ nection-rate attempts from a given source. Application Options For the most part, normal network traffic is distinct from the traffic exhibited by malicious agents.

    Virus Throttling Terminology Terminology Bridged Traffic: See “Switched Traffic”, below. DA: The acronym for Destination Address. In an IP packet, this is the destination IP address carried in the header, and identifies the destination intended by the packet’s originator. See also “SA”. Routed Traffic: Traffic moving from an SA in one VLAN to a DA in a different VLAN.
  • Page 64: Operating Rules

    Virus Throttling Operating Rules Operating Rules ■ When configuring or changing the configuration of connection-rate filters in the switch, execute the clear arp command to reset the routing table. Connection-Rate filtering is triggered by inbound IP routed traffic ■ exhibiting high rates of IP connections to new hosts. Inbound switched traffic with high IP connection rates does not trigger connection-rate filtering.
  • Page 65: General Configuration Guidelines

    Virus Throttling General Configuration Guidelines General Configuration Guidelines As stated earlier, connection-rate filtering is triggered only by routed, inbound traffic generating a relatively high number of new IP connection requests from the same host. Thus, for the switch to apply connection-rate filters, IP routing and multiple VLANs with member ports must first be configured.

However, concurrent operation of Web- or MAC-authentication with other types of authentication on the same port is not supported.
  • Page 99 Web and MAC Authentication Operating Rules and Notes • During an authenticated client session, the following hierarchy deter- mines a port’s VLAN membership: 1. If there is a RADIUS-assigned VLAN, then, for the duration of the client session, the port belongs to this VLAN and temporarily drops all other VLAN memberships.

    Key Management System Overview Overview The switches covered in this guide provide support for advanced routing capabilities. Security turns out to be extremely important as complex net- works and the internet grow and become a part of our daily life and business. This fact forces protocol developers to improve security mechanisms employed by their protocols, which in turn becomes an extra burden for system administrators who have to set up and maintain them.

Duration is either an end date and time or the number of seconds to allow after the start date and time (which is the accept-lifetime setting).
  • Page 377 Key Management System Configuring Key Chain Management Note Given transmission delays and the variations in the time value from switch to switch, it is advisable to include some flexibility in the Accept lifetime of the keys you configure. Otherwise, the switch may disregard some packets because either their key has expired while in transport or there are significant time variations between switches.
