Profiles

Selecting a profile

These application profiles contain the configuration of the protocol analysis, which is capable of raising alarms. An inspection profile is made up of a set of application profiles per protocol. By default, the inspection profile IPS_00 contains the application profiles protocole_00, and so on. These are the inspection profiles that will be applied in the filter policy.

For information, in factory configuration the inspection profile IPS_00 is intended for internal interfaces, applied to incoming traffic. The profile meant for public interfaces applied to outgoing traffic is the profile IPS_01.

The drop-down list offers 10 profiles, numbered from 00 to 09.

Each profile has by default the name of the protocol, accompanied by its number.

EXAMPLES
  • http_00
  • (1) http_01…
