Screen options are used to detect and prevent attacks such as floods, scans, and malformed packets. In some cases,false positivesmay occur, where legitimate traffic is mistakenly identified as malicious.
* To address this, administrators can configure thealarm-without-dropoption (Option D). This setting generates alarms/logs for suspicious traffic without actually dropping it, allowing verification before taking further action.
* Enabling all screen options (Option A) may increase false positives further.
* Discarding traffic immediately (Option B) risks disrupting legitimate communication.
* Increasing sensitivity (Option C) worsens the problem, since false positives would increase.
Correct Action:Use alarm-without-drop to log the traffic without dropping it.
