Distributed architecture for statistical overload control against distributed denial of service attacks

In a network including a centralized controller and a plurality of routers forming a security perimeter, a method for selectively discarding packets during a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack over the network. The method includes aggregating victim destination prefix lists and attack statistics associated with incoming packets received from the plurality of routers to confirm a DDoS attack victim, and aggregating packet attribute distribution frequencies for incoming victim related packets received from the plurality of security perimeter routers. Common scorebooks are generated from the aggregated packet attribute distribution frequencies and nominal traffic profiles, and local cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the local scores derived from the plurality of security perimeter routers are aggregated. A common discarding threshold is derived from the CDF and sent to each of the plurality of security perimeter routers, where the discarding threshold defines a condition in which an incoming packet may be discarded at the security perimeter.

Congestion and overload control in a packet switched network

The invention relates to a method for controlling overload in a packet switched network, especially in a network where Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) is used as the transport layer protocol. In order to inform the traffic source at a very early stage that the network is getting overloaded or congested, duplicate acknowledgments are transmitted towards the traffic source when the measured load level exceeds a predetermined threshold.

Platform level overload control

A communication system includes overload control at a platform level. A translator module receives messages from any number of distinct networks and provides priority information regarding each of those messages to an overload control module that uses the translated priority information and arrival rate information to provide needed message traffic control. The disclosed arrangement provides a universally applicable overload control approach that reduces duplicated resources associated with individual overload control algorithms for each network message processor.

Overload control system and method for a telecommunications system

Provided is a system and method for controlling overload in a telecommunications network. The network carries a traffic load that may include traffic of multiple classes and mixed types. The method determines whether the traffic load has exceeded one or more overload thresholds. Each threshold is associated with a class or type of traffic. If one or more of the thresholds have been exceeded, the method sets a timer associated with the exceeded threshold. Each timer has a state (e.g., expired or not expired) and the states of the timers are used to look up a function for controlling the overload. The function is used to alter the traffic flow of one or more of the traffic classes.

System for controlling telecommunication overload traffic

A telecommunications network includes a processor controlled switch and a network intelligence platform overload control function runs in the network intelligence layer. The overload control function measures the period of time taken to handle a call switching request and if the time taken exceeds a pre-determined quality of service threshold, it implements a call gapping function. The call gapping function modifies the gapping period such that requests to effect calls to particular destinations are spaced and any call arriving at a switching point prior to expiration of the gap period is automatically rejected by the local control processor. As the overload control function runs in a plurality of nodes, which may be file servers of the intelligence layer, the gapping period returned to the switch is dependent upon the perceived overload at the particular node. Traffic variations at the nodes may result in variations in the gapping period between nodes and therefore each node is arranged to communicate with other nodes to determine an average gapping period for the group of nodes and individual gapping periods in the nodes are relaxed towards the average value.

Adaptive cell gapping overload control system and method for a telecommunications system

Provided is a system and method for controlling overload in a telecommunications network. The network carries a traffic load that may exceed a maximum resource capacity and drive the network into an overload state. The method determines whether an overload state has occurred by comparing a current resource capacity to an overload onset threshold. If the threshold has been exceeded, the method blocks a certain percentage of traffic. An incrementally increasing percentage of traffic is blocked until the resource capacity crosses an overload abatement level. The method then incrementally decreases the percentage of blocked traffic until no traffic is blocked.

Communications network

In a communications network, a count is maintained of the number of calls made to a selected number. The number may be that of an answering center or of any other destination which has the capacity to handle a multiplicity of calls simultaneously. The count is automatically updated when calls are admitted to the number and when they are terminated. If a new call would take the number of calls in progress above a stored value for the maximum capacity of the number, then the call is rejected. In one implementation, resources are allocated dynamically on an Overload Control Server to a particular destination number only when congestion occurs. The stored value for the capacity may be amended automatically depending on the response of the network to admitted calls. The value for the capacity may initially be estimated as a function of the holding times for calls to the destination number.

Method for reverse link congestion overload control in wireless high speed data applications

The number of Reverse Activity Bits (RABs) equal to “1” per frame is a Congestion Overload (CO) metric used to determine whether the reverse link in a wireless communications system is in a congestion overload state due to a reverse link RF overload. When the value of the CO metric exceeds a first predetermined threshold that is indicative of a congestion overload condition, the system enters a block state where all new connection requests are blocked. Once in the block state, if the value of the CO metric does not decrease but continues to increase and exceeds a second higher threshold, the system enters a mute state. In the mute state a predetermined large percentage of existing active calls are muted. Specifically, a message is sent downlink to specific ATs instructing them to reduce their transmission rates to zero but to still maintain their active connections.

Method and apparatus for message-based overload control in a distributed call-processor communication system

A method and apparatus are disclosed for alleviating congestion and overload in a distributed call-processing system interconnected through a packet based network. The illustrative Internet Protocol network includes a plurality of end terminals and distributed call processors. According to an aspect of the invention, the call processor will determine whether to process a call request or to forward the request to another call processor. Generally, the call processor will declare an overload condition if sufficient resources (including processing or memory resources) are not available to process a given call. If a call processor determines that it is too congested to process a call, the call processor enters an overload condition, selects an alternate call processor and forwards the request to the alternate call processor. Each call processor maintains an ordered list of call processors that indicates whether or not each call processor is overloaded.
