Configuring Security Services (Unified Threat Management)

The settings that you enable in this section control what type of malicious traffic you can detect in IPS Sniffer Mode. Typically, you want to enable at least Intrusion Prevention, but you might also want to enable other Security Services, such as Gateway Anti-Virus or Anti-Spyware.

To enable Security Services, your SonicWall firewall must be licensed for them and the signatures must be downloaded from the SonicWall Data Center. For complete instructions on enabling and configuring Intrusion Prevention, Gateway Anti-Virus, and Anti-Spyware, see the SonicOS Security Services Administration Guide.
