Parameters
client-verify: Adds the victim IP addresses to the protected IP list for TCP client verification. If TCP client
verification is enabled, the device provides proxy services for protected servers.
drop: Drops subsequent SYN-ACK packets destined for the victim IP addresses.
logging: Enables logging for SYN-ACK flood attack events. The log information records the detection
interface, victim IP address, MPLS L3VPN instance name, current packet statistics, prevention actions,
and start time of the attack.
Usage guidelines
To configure the SYN-ACK flood attack detection to collaborate with the TCP client verification, make sure
the client-verify keyword is specified and the TCP client verification is enabled. To enable TCP client
verification, use the client-verify tcp enable command.
Examples
# Specify drop as the global action against SYN-ACK flood attacks in attack defense policy atk-policy-1.

address.
