This time from Gilberto Bertin on how Cloudfare is integrating XDP in their DDoS mitigation approach. More description: ---- This talk provides an introduction to how we are planning to integrate XDP into our DDoS mitigation pipeline at Cloudflare, which every day helps defend our infrastructure from thousands of different attacks, in the range of 50-150 Gbps (with peaks of 500 Gbps). The main points of the presentation are: * introduction to the current architecture: from how attack traffic is sampled, to attack detection and mitigation, to how BPF fits in the current pipeline * architecture changes we are expecting, and new tools required after we move from our current network kernel bypass setup to XDP * issues and questions regarding the current state of XDP ----------- cheers, jamal -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
