Does IPS work straight out of the box?

I have a xg115w and I did minimal configuration to it. Basically forwarding email ports to the email server (I don't even know if the spam filter/malware filter is working) and I set up VPN connection. Real basic stuff. I see in the logs that there were already some attacks. How do I know if Sophos is blocking them? Do I need to configure a firewall rule for it?

Below is the log for the intrusion attacks. It dosen't look like they were blocked but I don't know

  • Hi,

    no you add the IPS rule of your choice in your policy. I have found the IPS rules (XG talk is they are policies) naming conventions very confusing (I suspect others have) you need to use the IPS policy that is counter intuitive eg LAN to WAN for incoming traffic, there are couple of IPS policies.
