Usage Guidelines
• If the total port scan penalty value exceeds this value, a port scan attack is recorded.
• The penalty value is incremented by recording TCP or UDP packets that are bound for open or closed
ports. Such packets are given a penalty value, which are added together. The commands for setting the
packet penalty value are the ip dos scan close-port-penalty, ip dos scan tcp open-port-penalty, and
ip dos scan udp open-port-penalty commands.
