Update Center
-
This section describes how to update the signature database, Artificial Intelligence Engine (AIE), and local reputation to the specified versions to enhance the dynamic defense capabilities of a network security device.
-
SNMP
-
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) provides a set of standard protocols for the communication between the network management station (NMS) and devices, allowing the NMS to normally manage devices and receive alarms reported by the devices.
-
Across-Layer-3 MAC Identification
-
When the FW is connected to the intranet through layer-3 devices, configuring across-Layer-3 MAC address identification enables the FW to obtain MAC addresses of intranet PCs.
-
