Network Port Monitor

Note

The Network port monitor options are set on Dr.Web Server only. They are not available to the station users.

Network port monitor checks ports used by TCP transport protocols. The intercepted connection is analyzed and, according to the traffic content, protocol type is defined. The necessary settings are used depending on the protocol type. Email protocols are scanned in accordance with the Spider Mail settings, others in accordance with the SpIDer Gate and Office Control settings.

SpIDer Mail intercepts data exchange between mail clients and mail servers made via POP3, SMTP, IMAP4, or NNTP (IMAP4 stands for IMAPv4rev1) protocols, detects and neutralizes threats before the mail is transmitted to the Server.

SpIDer Gate checks incoming HTTP traffic and blocks all malicious objects (in case default settings are used). HTTP protocol is used by web browsers, download managers, and other applications which exchange data with web servers, i.e. work with the internet.

Office Control restricts users to access websites in accordance with the Web filtering and Black and White lists options.

Note

In case Network port monitor scans a specific port, SpIDer Mail and SpIDer Gate do not check applications or processes that use this port if they are added to the Excluded applications list.

 

In case Network port monitor scans ports used by HTTP protocols, SpIDer Gate does not check websites that are added to the Office Control White list.

By default, Network port monitor checks the inbound and outbound traffic on all the ports. Enable the Check traffic only on specified ports option to check the traffic on the ports specified in the Ports list.

By default, numbers of ports used by email and HTTP protocols are specified in the Ports list.

To add a new port to the list, click icon-item-add.

To remove a port from the list, click icon-item-remove next to the list item that corresponds the port.
