Robustness of RED in Mitigating LDoS Attack
Jing Zhang, Huaping Hu, Bo Liu · KSII Transactions on Internet and Information Systems · 2011
The Random Early Detection algorithm is widely used in the queue management mechanism of the router.We find that the parameters of the RED algorithm have a significant influence on the defense performance of the random early detection algorithm and discuss the robust of the algorithm in mitigating Low-rate Denial-of-Service attack in details.Simulation results show that the defense performance can be effectively improved by adjusting the parameters of min Q and max Q .Some suggestions are given for mitigating the LDoS attack at the end of this paper.
