RE: automatic rtbh trigger using flow data

Exactly Aaron. No provider will allow a customer to null route a source IP address. I could only assume that a null 
route on Michel's network is tanking the packets at their edge to 192.0.2.1 (discard/null0).

Thanks, but what if the attacker is many... like thousands ?  ...isn't that typically what we see, is tons and tons of 
sources (hence
distributed....dos) ?

Hi, does anyone know how to use flow data to trigger a rtbh (remotely

quagga or a script of some sort to interact with a router to advertise

bgp the /32 host route of the victim under attack.

Look at Exabgp : https://github.com/Exa-Networks/exabgp
That's what I use in here : https://arneill-py.sacramento.ca.us/cbbc/ to inject the prefixes in BGP.
I block the attacker's addresses, not the victim but if you are willing to write your own scripts it does the job.
