Seeing the important notice released by Jilin University Network Center, it seems that Rising's ARP protection is "fighting violence with violence", so none of us can have a good experience. Recently, some network segments in our school are filled with a large number of arp broadcast packets, which seriously affects the network operation.

After repeated checks by technical personnel, it was confirmed that the "Rising 2008 Firewall Software" has serious design problems. Any computer using the "Rising 2008 Firewall Software" and adopting its default settings will send out a large number of incorrect arp broadcast packets within the network segment, not only causing the network lines within the segment to be unsmooth, but also making the CPU load of upstream routers and other network devices fully loaded. The interference and destructiveness of this software to the network is even greater than many computer viruses.
