LandAttackDetectionEnabled Property of IFPCAttackDetection[C++]

FPCAttackDetection.LandAttackDetectionEnabled [Visual Basic]

[C++]

The LandAttackDetectionEnabled property gets or sets a Boolean value that indicates whether land attacks are detected and generate an alert.

A land attack is one in which a Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) SYN packet is sent with a spoofed source IP address that matches the destination IP address of the ISA Server computer and with a port number that is allowed by the ISA Server rules so that the ISA Server computer will try to establish a TCP session with itself. If the attack succeeds, the computer enters a closed loop and must be restarted.
