2.4.3. Restrictions¶
Restrictions relating to IP addresses- In order to connect the SIGs with Web Anti-Virus, you must have two IP address blocks available. If the IP address block is already being used, NTT Com Group might ask you to change it.
- NTT Com Group will manage the assigned IP address blocks, and assign IP addresses to the devices that require them.
- If you perform Ping monitoring on the VM, you will require an additional Server Segment for direct connection between vFW/INA and the VM.
- Do not connect the target server segments directly to the vFW/INA.
When the actual traffic volume exceeds the contracted traffic volume, the excess traffic might be discarded.
The following communications are not targeted for Virus Scan.
- Encrypted communication (e.g. HTTPS, SFTP)
- Password-protected files
- Files compressed by compression algorism other than zip/gzip
- Files compressed three (3) times or more
- Packets which break TCP/UDP/IP protocol rules or abnormal packets are discarded as a standard function regardless of customer’s configuration.(Examples)
- When the IP header is cut off in the middle
- When the Port number is 0 (zero)
- When the TCP flag combination is abnormal and others
