Arbour Peakflow is probably the way to go.

However if you don't want to spend a ton of money, you might
want to consider using a stub router +bgp coupled with a server
running the appropriate SNMP tools (perhaps cacti) to publish your desired
data.

It's not the most convenient solution but it should do..

Hi,

I looking some box (vendor, model), which i can put out of the
main/product network,  which can analyze packets  netflow,sflow,syslog
from bgp router(s) and after discover some anomaly it can do some
action, for example:

- Box have bgp session with bgp router and advertise attacked ip prefix
with some community. Bgp router set next-hop for this prefix to
/dev/null

Normal traffic via bgp router is about 1G/s in and 10G/s out

What is worth of looking and what you suggest ?

thanks for help,
Piotr




Most larger ISPs offer this as a service that you can add on with existing contracts. They usually guarantee up to a 
certain bandwidth level what they will provide as "clean pipe service". Be advised most ISPs are only able to scrub to 
L3, anything higher and you have to start looking at Verisign, Prolexic or similar and/or something in house. 
Especially for SSL based attacks.

Thanks.
Justin
