[H.G.P.]

I have a Security Center with one of our computers I'm trying to learn more regarding ideal settings:

1. What inbound events should I ban?

2. How high should I have security level of the firewall?

3. What exactly is happening with an "unsolicited attempt" at connection to a port?

4. What is a port?

5. What exactly is a "ping?"

6. I see I can trace event. There are "Map", Registrant" and "Network" views. How can these views be used/useful. Any tips about tracing appreciated.


Thanks (for now)!
