Hi Jim,

Also, as Stefaan Pouseele taught me a long time ago, if you perform
fragment filtering, any process that requires certificate exchange will
fail.

HTH,

Fragmentation detection is part of ISA's built-in IDS.
The disadvantage to using it is that many protocols (most notably,
streaming media), depend on fragmentation to send their data.

Don't confuse port scans with data acquisition; if your ISA is properly
configured, port scans just add information to your IP logs; they don't
provide the "intruder" any information.

Does the ISA server detects fragmented attacks. I happen to experience
an Intruder is continuously able to perform port scan on the external
Interface while having his source IP blocked both on the perimeter
router and on the firewall as a packet filter deny rule.

Any thoughts?

Shiv

NB: Firewall has IDS enabled and keeps sending alerts.
