Network Security  

6  1  Protect the Network from Cyber Attacks  

The SPI Firewall can prevent cyber attacks and validate the traffic that is passing  

through the router based on the protocol. This function is enabled by default, and it’s  

recommended to keep the default settings.  

DoS Protection can protect your home network against DoS attacks from flooding your  

network with server requests.  

Follow the steps below to configure Firewall and DoS Protection.  

1  Visit http://tplinkmodem.net, and log in with the password or your TP-Link ID.  

2  Go to Advanced > Security > Firewall & DoS Protection.  

3  Enable IPv4 SPI Firewall.  

4  Enable DoS Protection.  

Note: DoS protection and Traffic Statistics must be enabled at the same time. To enable Traffic Statistics, go to  

Advanced>System Tools>Traffic Monitor and toggle on Traffic Monitor.  

5  Set the level (Low, Middle or High) of protection for ICMP-FLOOD Attack Filtering,  

UDP-FlOOD Attack Filtering and TCP-FLOOD Attack Filtering.  

•

•

•

ICMP-FLOOD Attack Filtering - Enable to prevent the ICMP (Internet Control  

Message Protocol) flood attack.  

UDP-FlOOD Attack Filtering - Enable to prevent the UDP (User Datagram  

Protocol) flood attack.  

TCP-FLOOD Attack Filtering - Enable to prevent the TCP-SYN (Transmission  

Control Protocol-Synchronize) flood attack.  

Tips:  

The level of protection is based on the number of traffic packets. The protection will be triggered immediately  

when the number of packets exceeds the preset threshold value (the value can be set on Dos Protection Level  

Settings section of the same page), and the vicious host will be displayed in the Blocked DoS Host List.  

6  Click Save.
