In your typical enterprise environment, a 1G DoS will zorch the link long before it zorches the router at the enterprise side.
This contradicts my experience - I've repeatedly witnessed only a few mb/sec of 64-byte packets making software-based routers fall over, including just last month.
Would Cisco ISR G2 3925E classify as software-based router? Expected NDR performance is about 1845 pps (64-byte packets). That should deliver room for some 100s of Mbps. Do you expect it to bend itself down under a few Mbps of 64-byte packets? http://www.anticisco.ru/pubs/ISR_G2_Perfomance.pdf Everton
