Try not to ever do the DDOS or DOS detection on the network device unless
it is a device dedicated to doing such acts.

My recommendation and is something we do:

- Export Netflows and or IPFW Logs to a device for analysis.
- FreeBSD supports ZFS, you can export massive volumes of both logs and
flow data and retain for processing (we collect about 200GB per day worth
of data for analysis)
- On the device which is analysing your flows or logs, build in the
functionality to talk to your network device and react in real time with
IPFW.
- Don¹t use PF it is slow on FreeBSD - if you want to use PF, consider
OpenBSD.

We currently use all open source tools to analyse data in real time and
talk back to our BSDRP routers to perform RTBH, connection limiting,
blocks, etc.

The netfilter modules for connection limits and such like are handy when
using it on a server especially if it¹s hosting con ten, however on
routers which push large amounts of PPS it performs poorly and is a bit of
a hack to be honest. I¹d avoid any of those kind of solutions even if they
are available for PF or IPFW.
