config ips global

Parameter

Description

Type

Size

Default

fail-open

Enable to allow traffic if the IPS buffer is full. Default is disable and IPS traffic is blocked when the IPS buffer is full.

option

-

disable

Option

Description

enable

Enable IPS fail open.

disable

Disable IPS fail open.

database

Regular or extended IPS database. Regular protects against the latest common and in-the-wild attacks. Extended includes protection from legacy attacks.

option

-

regular **

Option

Description

regular

IPS regular database package.

extended

IPS extended database package.

traffic-submit

Enable/disable submitting attack data found by this FortiGate to FortiGuard.

option

-

disable

Option

Description

enable

Enable traffic submit.

disable

Disable traffic submit.

anomaly-mode

Global blocking mode for rate-based anomalies.

option

-

continuous

Option

Description

periodical

After an anomaly is detected, allow the number of packets per second according to the anomaly configuration.

continuous

Block packets once an anomaly is detected. Overrides individual anomaly settings.

Method of counting concurrent sessions used by session limit anomalies. Choose between greater accuracy (accurate) or improved performance (heuristics).

option

-

heuristic

Option

Description

accurate

Accurately count concurrent sessions, demands more resources.

heuristic

Use heuristics to estimate the number of concurrent sessions. Acceptable in most cases.

socket-size

IPS socket buffer size. Max and default value depend on available memory. Can be changed to tune performance.

integer
