No-one in their right mind will let the management plane of a high end router chew up management CPU by forwarding punted packets. It's pointless. > can ingress / edge filters be done in two stages? core routers only > filter on SA/DA while whatever infrastructure function you need to > reach apply deeper filters? Basically, no. What might look to be legitimate traffic on core ingress might only become visible as a ddos attack on the egress to the edge. That's assuming that there is a clear-cut edge and core which there often isn't. > for DOS attacks, are those filters put in place dynamically? yes - e.g. via flowspec. > what does a typical attack look like? they vary extremely widely; the smarter attacks will measure the effect on the recipient site and vary the ddos traffic according to what appears to work the best. I.e. if one style of traffic appears not to be having an impact, the traffic profile might change to something else to see if that causes more trouble. > can you identify it without having to parse EHs? If someone attacks with ipv6 and there is a long enough EH chain to cause the normal forwarding plane of a router to be unable to look far enough into the packet to determine the L4 info, then the only real option is to drop or rate limit (which is nearly equivalent to dropping in the case of a ddos). There is insufficient parsing granularity on any current equipment to be able to do much else. > how often are you not able to identify it even when looking deep? > any papers/reports on this? No papers that I'm aware of. Nick
