Hi Chan,

RS 7 will strip the VLAN tags from packets so that they can read them
properly (we do something similar with our IDS Balancer) - but you need to
be very careful if you want to use Kills (TCP RSTs) - because RS will not
put the VLAN tags back on ! And so RSTs don't work

The only true way of stopping attacks in VLAN environment is to block the IP
packets with some sort of inline device.

We have done some initial tests with Real Secure and our Attack Mitigator
(an inline DDOS box) such that RS can send block commands to the Attack
Mitigator, and so stop attacks in a VLAN environment.

If you would like some more info let me know

Cheers

Simon

Hi all,

>From the docs, it mentioned that RS 7.0 can monitor vlan.

Can someone here kind enough to explain how it works and how to make it
works?

Thanks.
