How to Enable L4 DoS/DDoS Protection?
About
What is DOS/DDOS Protect?
DOS and DDOS attacks often lead to partial or complete service interruptions or downtime for organizations and institutions. DOS and DDOS protection systems are multi-layered and dynamic mechanisms designed to counter these types of attacks. These systems continuously learn and evaluate network traffic, using behavioral modeling to actively protect by blocking malicious traffic while allowing legitimate traffic.
Basic DDOS Attack Types
- Network Level
- Reflective/Amplified
- Fragmentation
- Application Specific
- Crafted
With TR7 ASP DOS/DDOS Mitigation, can be provided against commonly known attacks such as "ICMP Smurf Attack, SYN Flood, Tear Drop, UDP Flood, NTP Flood, DNS Flood, Zero Byte UDP, Protocol Validation, PUSH Floods and ACK Floods, Possible WAREZ Attack, Camfrog, TCP Ack, Ping of Death ICMP, Null Flood, Christmas Tree, Port Scan, SMBnuke, Pepsi, Fraggle Attack, Zombie TCP, Smurf Attack".
Attack-detected IP addresses can be quarantined for a specified period and monitored on the DOS/DDOS Mitigation Dashboard screen.

L4 DOS/DDOS Mitigation
Step > 1
"Network > DOS/DDOS Mitigation" steps will display the types of attacks for which protection will be implemented against DOS and DDOS attacks on the TR7 ASP device.
Protection against basic attacks such as SYN Flood, UDP Flood, DNS Flood, Port Scan, SMBnuke, and Zombie TCP can be easily provided.
Step > 2
The route table on which DOS/DDOS Mitigation will be applied is selected.
Step > 3
By clicking the "Edit OFF" button, the editing is activated. Based on the attack types and the organization's needs, various actions can be performed for each attack type in the list, such as disabling the attack, blocking it, setting it to monitor mode, quarantining it, and adding it to the blacklist. Additionally, limits can be defined.
Attack Types

- TR7 HTTP access limitation (IP based number of new connections)
- TR7 HTTPS access limitation (IP based number of new connections)

Step > 4
While in edit mode, the Quarantine Time can be adjusted, and desired IP addresses can be added to the Whitelist using the Whitelist button.
After making the necessary changes, click the Save button to apply and save the modifications.
This way, L4 DoS/DDoS Mitigation is activated for the relevant route table.
Step > 5
Details of quarantined clients and the IP addresses making requests can be viewed on the "DoS/DDoS Dashboard."
