Hello Pavel, I'm certainly biased to the open-source tools if they do the job required, and I appreciate your effort exerted on this project. However, based upon what I saw under the "features" list of your tool, I assume that it can detect only volumetric DDoS attacks based upon anomalies such as excessive number of packets/bits/connections/flows per second based upon some previously learnt or set threshold values. But what about the protocol types of attack, which, in my humble opinion is becoming more aggressive day after day? Mohamed Kamal Core Network Sr. Engineer On 4/2/2015 5:03 PM, Pavel Odintsov wrote:
Hello!
What about open source alternatives? Main part of commercial ddos filters are simple high performace firewalls with detection logic (which much times more stupid than well trained network engineer).
But attacks for ISP is not arrived so iften and detection part coukd be executed manually (or with oss tools like netflow analyzers or my own FastNetMon toolkit).
For wire speed filtration on 10ge (and even more if you have modern cpu; up to 40ge) you could use netmap-ipfw with linux or freebsd with simple patches (for enabling multy process mode).

You should include Radware on that list .

In our effort to pick up a reasonably priced DDoS appliance with a competitive features, we're in a process of doing a PoC for the following shortlisted vendors:
1- RioRey 2- NSFocus 3- Arbor 4- A10
The setup will be inline. So it would be great if anyone have done this before and can help provide the appropriate tools, advices, or the testing documents for efficient PoC.
Thanks.
