How do I know if my network is having worm/virus related issues?
Recently, excessive network traffic due to worms and viruses has overloaded many networks and networking devices (including PacketShaper). Most likely, this kind of activity will continue in the future as well.
PacketShaper can help identify performance problems due to viruses and worms and can also help block some of this undesired traffic. However, PacketShaper is NOT a firewall or an anti-virus tool that can be used to protect a network against these types of attacks.
