Terrible traffic
Good morning:
We are being bombarded by a terrific amount of traffic on our routers. I
believe it is from one of the new viruses. These routers are the Cisco AS5248
and 5396. Does anyone know how I might help them? Thank you in advance.

Hello!

Turn ON the debug to view what type of traffic it is ... two days back
i hve been go through from this problem it was ICMP echo traffic due to
Nachi worm. look over the document on cisco's site if its a icmp
traffic. Just block these type of traffic through ACL.

regards,

Mushtaque.

Be careful what debugs you turn on as you may inadvertently kill the router
esp. in high load conditions. Sampled Netflow will be a better option.

Yes, there's quite a rash of Microsoft Windows - based
worms and viruses floating around right now. Here are
some pointers on them and some suggestions for dealing
with them.

Windows vulnerabilities:

Blaster: http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_100557.htm

Nachi: http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sn-20030820-nachi.shtml#aclios
http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_100559.htm

There's also "SoBig" - I don't have any pointers on it right now, but
I'm sure that a quick look at cnet or Google news will get you plenty
of info.
