Object

column SNMPv2-SMICounter64
According to RFC 1700, some protocol types in IP header are 
reserved and unassigned at this time. Precisely because these 
protocols are undefined, there is no way to know in advance 
if a particular unknown protocol is benign or malicious.  Unless 
your network makes use of a non-standard protocol with reserved 
or unassigned protocol number, a cautious stance is to block 
such unknown elements from entering your protected network. 
              
When the Unknown Protocol Protection SCREEN option is enabled, 
the security device drops packets when the protocol field 
contains a protocol ID number of 137 or greater by default. 
              
This attribute records the detection of Unknown protocol 
IP packets.
