Is there still justification for denying transit for ms-sql slammer ports? Thanks, Joe

There will always be infected machines out there. The question is, are there infectable machines on your network, and will your network contain them or melt down if you allow them to get infected? sql slammer must have been a huge money maker for cisco and other switch vendors (any that support per-port rate-limiting or policing) as networks scrambled to upgrade infrastructure to contain the next similar outbreak rather than melt under the load. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis | I route Senior Network Engineer | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________
