[FW1] Protection from DoS attacks
Hi all,
I have tested my FW1(on windows 2000 - all default services enabled) against
several types of DoS attacks, including ping flood. My rulebase allowed any
service out towards the internet, but nothing in. In our 100Mbps network we
set up 4 computers running several windows with krate. The 4 computers nukes
the Firewall on port 80, the most common port in use on such systems. After
about 3 minutes with massive attacks the FW module crashed and rebooted.
Does anyone know how to protect my system against such attacks? Is this
possible on a NT based computer? Is this a problem on Solaris boxes as well?
Thanks:)
Tomas Norum
