Mainly aiming at tracing DoS and DDoS attack, the current IP traceback methods has not yet had a good scheme for tracing single packet attack; and most of them enable the marking routers to mark the packet independently, regardless of making the marking routers work together to improve the traceback performance. In view of these insufficiencies, we propose a traceback method named CDPM which is based on the coordination of border gateways. CDPM can identify the forged path information and adjust the marking strategy dynamically so as to reduce the impact on the network and trace different types of attacks (DoS, DDoS, single packet attack and so on). Finally, simulation results show that CDPM is able to reconstruct the attack path as well as own good feasibility and little influence on the end-to-end delay of IP packet.
