Hello Everyone,
I have 2 different suggestions about syn-cookies method which is used to
block syn-flood attacks.
Syn cookies bitwise image
---------------------------------------------
T(5 bits) ---MSS(3 bits)-----H(24 bits)
---------------------------------------------
So,
1- T value can be decreased to 2 bit which is already 5 bit.And hash value
will be 27 bit.
2-Normally syn-cookies is activated when syn-list is fulled.
At this point I suggest a hybrid system.Syn packages and eck packages
which received to server will be counted, if the difference is bigger than
a reference value syn-cookies will be activated.
In other words syn-cookies mechanism will be in automatic control.
Now I have two questions;
1-How can I invoke syn-cookies structure into Linux Kernel?
2-How can I know when syn-list is fulled?
Thank you everyone,
if you have any suggestions please let me know.
