Chapter 8: IP Routing Configuration Guide

Configuring Denial of Service (DOS)

By default, the SSR installs flows in the hardware so that packets sent as directed broadcasts are dropped in hardware, if directed broadcast is not enabled on the interface where the packet is received. You can disable this feature, causing directed broadcast packets to be processed on the SSR even if directed broadcast is not enabled on the interface receiving the packet.

Similarly, the SSR installs flows to drop packets destined for the SSR for which service is not provided by the SSR. This prevents packets for unknown services from slowing the CPU. You can disable this behavior, causing these packets to be processed by the CPU.

To cause directed broadcast packets to be processed on the SSR, even if directed broadcast is not enabled on the interface receiving the packet:

ssr(config)# ip dos disable directed-broadcast-protection

To allow packets destined for the SSR, but do not have a service defined for them on the SSR, to be processed by the SSR’s CPU:

ssr(config)# ip dos disable port-attack-protection

Monitoring IP Parameters

The SSR provides display of IP statistics and configurations contained in the routing table. Information displayed provides routing and performance information.

The ip show commands display IP information, such as routing tables, TCP/UDP connections, and IP interface configuration, on the SSR. The following example displays all established connections and services of the SSR.

ssr# ip show connections
