   Agreed.

   But.... unfortunately that is the nature of the beast for *some types of   
   attacks* according to tech support.  It varies but ~20 hits in one second   
   and the house of cards comes down.  Without the video system - this network   
   stays up for months with no reboots. I have logs showing many DoS, and SYN   
   Flood attacks over time and the firewall stays up. This is an internal UDP   
   Flood attack and it only takes 20 hits and it reboots.  If I enable "Block   
   UDP Flood", it then blocks the internal addresses forever. A bug obviously   
   but NetGear doesn't have a fix yet.   
      
   So anyone know anything about the av-emb-config protocol?  I am working with   
   the manf rep and tech support - no answers yet (amazing right...) so that’s   
   why I came here.   
      
   Thanks,
