CUSTOMER PREMISES EQUIPMENT AND METHOD FOR AVOIDING ATTACKS

摘要

A customer premises equipment (CPE) receives data packets from a network service device via a primary service flow. When the CPE detects flood of packets in the data packets received via the primary service flow, the CPE determines a source Internet protocol (IP) address of the flood of packets. The CPE establishes a new service flow with the network service device. A source IP address of the new service flow is set to the source IP address of the flood of packets, and a transfer speed of the new service flow is less than that of the primary service flow. The CPE transfers the flood of packets from the primary service flow to the new service flow.
