14.4 Attack Alert 
Attack alerts are real-time reports of DoS attacks. In the Attack Alert screen, shown later, you may choose 
to generate an alert whenever an attack is detected. For DoS attacks, the Prestige uses thresholds to determine 
when to drop sessions that do not become fully established. These thresholds apply globally to all sessions. 
You can use the default threshold values, or you can change them to values more suitable to your security 
requirements.  
14.4.1 Threshold Values 
Tune these parameters when something is not working and after you have checked the firewall counters. 
These default values should work fine for most small offices. Factors influencing choices for threshold 
values are: 
1.  The maximum number of opened sessions.
