I have a sonicwall TZ-180. I have an application that is trying to establish a passive FTP connection, but Intrusion Protection on the sonicwall is dropping the connection with a log event that looks like this:<br />

<a href="FTP" rel="ugc">FTP</a>: Port Bounce Attack Dropped<br />
<br />
I have found some posts for older sonicwall devices that tells you how to go in and tell the sonicwall how to ignore this alert, but I cannot find anything on the sonicwall enhanced OS which is on my TZ-180. I have looked in the intrusion prevention section of my sonicwall but cannot find this particular event so I can disable it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!<br />

Sonicwall TZ-180 FTP issue - FTP: Port Bounce Attack Dropped

A server is a computer program or a machine that waits for requests from other machines or software (clients) and responds to them. This architecture is called the client–server model. The clients may run on the same computer or may connect to the server over a network. The purpose of a server is to share data or hardware and software resources among clients. Typical computing servers are database servers, file servers, mail servers, print servers, web servers, game servers, and application servers.

Server Software

Networking software modules are interfaced with a framework implemented on the machine's operating system that implements the networking functionality of the operating system. The best known frameworks are the TCP/IP model and the OSI model. Systems typically do not use a single protocol to handle a transmission. Instead they use a set of cooperating protocols, sometimes called a protocol family or protocol suite.[9] Some of the best known protocol suites include: IPX/SPX, X.25, AX.25, AppleTalk and TCP/IP. Other protocols indirectly related to networking include the hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) and its related technologies, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Domain Name Server (DNS) and other Internet protocols.

Networking Protocols

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.
