The ICMP Unreach traffic alone generated in the neighborhood of 1.7Mb before they routed the netblock in question to a loopback interface on the 7507. The attacker was sending less that 300Kb of traffic and consuming 2Mb. ------- John Fraizer (root) | __ _ | The System Administrator | / / (_)__ __ ____ __ | The choice mailto:[email protected] | / /__/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / | of a GNU http://www.EnterZone.Net/ | /____/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\ | Generation A 486 is a terrible thing to waste...
