Usage Scenario

After deception is enabled, the DecoySensor identifies IP address and TCP port scanning activities on the network and lures suspicious traffic to the Decoy. If the configuration is incorrect, normal network traffic may be affected. Before enabling deception, run the display this command in the deception view to confirm the deception configuration.

Prerequisites

  • The optimized ARP reply function has been disabled using the arp optimized-reply disable command, and the VLANIF interface has been configured to send ARP packets destined for other devices to the CPU using the undo arp optimized-passby enable command.
  • You have configured deception detect-network or deception decoy-network, or both of them. Otherwise, the deception function does not take effect.
