IP Traceback Based on Weight Marking Scheme
Xu Yong · Chinese Journal of Computers · 2003
To Defend against DDoS on the Internet, this paper presents a Weight Marking Scheme (WMS) to trace the source of the attacks. To resolve the problem of high false position rate, WMS research the character of HASH. Using the combination of optimum HASH, WMS compresses the IP form 64 bits to 11 bits and reduces the false position rate. In pervious works, there are no differences between the attack paths. WMS imports the weight information to edges and paths, so the victim can find the attack paths more clearly by comparing weight of paths in the normal condition with weight of paths in the abnormal condition. Both the theory and the experiment result show the validity of WMS.
