In the past, I've used DoSDetector to some success: /usr/ports/net/dosdetector "DoSDetector analyzes and detects suspicious IP traffic and alerts about it. It can detect worm traffic, SYN flood, icmp flood, udp flood attacks and more. It's configurable via a rule set; when an IP exceeds the score limit, DoSDetector prints a warning. WWW: http://dark-zone.eu/resources/unix/dosdetector/" Combined w/ NetFlow exports on your edge routers provides even more accuracy in at least identifying the router and interface the traffic is coming in from and then acting accordingly to mitigate its effects. Many of the CAIDA tools (http://www.caida.org/tools/) can also help with identifying the source and destination of the anoomalous traffic. Hope this information proves to be of some value.
