hi N O Y B..thanks for your responce. this is still a littel confuse for me.in the first picture i posted which option should i "check"-custom-no security-minimun security[low]--typical security[mediun]--or maximun security[high]
then you said you prefer this set
1.- Inbound Firewall Rules - Medium Deny All Inbound Packets That Are Not Explicitly Permitted or Do Not Have a Matching Session State Table Entry (Unsolicited)
title [ Security Level Custom (Medium) IN rules ]begin# Drop and Log Packets with Time to Live (TTL) of 0 or 1TTL#drop match 3 8 { 01:FE } >> done, alert 4 [TTL of 0 or ......etc,etc
2.-Outbound Firewall Rules - Low Permit All Outbound Packets That Are Not Explicitly Denied
title [ Security Level Custom (Low) OUT rules ]begin# Protocol Match conditions# Internet Control Message Protocol# Pass Specific ICMP Types, Drop and Log all other ICMP Types .....................etc,etc
and BTW ..harden security affects connection speeds??? |

As for speed, run a comparison speed test. Doubt you will see any meaningful impact.
