Subject:   FreeBSD firewall block syn flood attack
Message-ID:  <BAEF3AC0.9998%ryan@mac2.net>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Hello,

I current have a FreeBSD 4.8 bridge firewall that sits between 7 servers and
the internet. The servers are being attacked with syn floods and go down
multiple times a day.

The 7 servers belong to a client, who runs redhat.

I am trying to find a way to do some kind of syn flood protection inside the
firewall. 


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
