Protecting CGN Devices Against Denial of Service (DOS) Attacks
You can now choose configuration options that help prevent or minimize the effect of attempted denial of service (DOS) attacks.
Mapping Refresh Behavior
Prior to the implementation of the new options for configuring
NAT mapping refresh behavior, described in this topic, a conversation
was kept alive when either inbound or outbound flows were active.
This remains the default behavior. You can now also specify mapping
refresh for only inbound flows or only outbound flows. To configure
mapping refresh behavior, include the mapping-refresh (inbound
| outbound | inbound-outbound)
statement at the [edit services
nat rule rule-name term term-name then translated secure-nat-mapping]
hierarchy level.
EIF Inbound Flow Limit
Previously. the number of inbound connections on an EIF mapping
was limited only by the maximum flows allowed on the system. You can
now configure the number of inbound flows allowed for an EIF. To limit
the number of inbound connections on an EIF mapping, include the eif-flow-limit number-of-flows
statement
at the [edit services nat rule rule-name term term-name then translated secure-nat-mapping]
hierarchy level.
