Configuring Attack Detectors
• Thresholds:
–
open-flows-rate — Default threshold for rate of open flows. suspected-flows-rate — Default
threshold for rate of suspected DDoS flows.
–
suspected-flows-ratio — Default threshold for ratio of suspected flow rate to open flow rate.
• Use the appropriate keyword to enable or disable subscriber notification by default:
–
notify-subscriber — Enable subscriber notification.
–
don't-notify-subscriber — Disable subscriber notification.
• Use the appropriate keyword to enable or disable sending an SNMP trap by default:
–
alarm — Enable sending an SNMP trap.
–
no-alarm — Disable sending an SNMP trap.
How to Define the Default Action and Optionally the Default Thresholds
Defaults
The default values for the default attack detector are:
• Action — Report
• Thresholds — Varies according to the attack type
• Subscriber notification — Disabled
• Sending an SNMP trap — Disabled
Step 1 From the SCE(config if)# prompt, type attack-detector default protocol (((TCP|UDP) [dest-port
(specific|not- specific|both)])|ICMP|other|all) attack-direction
(single-side-source|single-side-destination|single-side-both|dual-sided|all) side
(subscriber|network|both) [action (report|block)] [open-flows-rate number suspected-flows-rate
rate suspected-flows-ratio ratio] and press Enter.
Configures the default attack detector for the defined attack type.
Step 2 From the SCE(config if)# prompt, type attack-detector default protocol (((TCP|UDP) [dest-port
(specific|not- specific|both)])|ICMP|other|all) attack-direction
(single-side-source|single-side-destination|single-side-both|dual-sided|all) side
(subscriber|network|both) (notify-subscriber|don't-notify-subscriber)
and press Enter.
Enables or disables subscriber notification by default for the defined attack type.
The attack type must be defined the same as in Step 1.
Step 3 From the SCE(config if)# prompt, type attack-detector default protocol (((TCP|UDP) [dest-port
(specific|not- specific|both)])|ICMP|other|all) attack-direction
(single-side-source|single-side-destination|single-side-both|dual-sided|all) side
(subscriber|network|both) (alarm|no-alarm) and press Enter.
Enables or disables sending an SNMP trap by default for the defined attack type.
The attack type must be defined the same as in Step 1.
