Short of fixing every network on the internet, does anyone have any useful advice for what to do when smurfed? This happened to an FDT customer last night, and it had our T1 (according to uunet) at about 500% capacity. Obviously, until the attack stopped, our T1 wasn't too useful. I'm about >< close to just asking uunet to block all icmp echo replies from coming into FDT...but I know customers will complain. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jon Lewis <[email protected]> | Unsolicited commercial e-mail will Network Administrator | be proof-read for $199/message.
