      I have Netgear GS308T and it has a page for DoS attack blocking. Can/SHOULD/is it safe to use along side PfSense?

      I'm thinking in my head no, but would like to hear from the experts!

      Thank you!

          Deppends what it actually does. Most of those look like they would only block traffic that should never be present but some could certainly cause problems.
