Know your gear
Is your network protected from DDoS attacks? The potential for damage is at an all-time high. The power, frequency, and size and size of these attacks continue to increase at an alarming rate. Results include downtime, potential loss of revenue, decreased network availability, and undue media attention. It is critical to protect your network from these attacks. Cisco and Arbor Networks have collaborated to bring an advanced DDoS solution to this problem. The Cisco ASR 9000 Virtual DDoS Protection solution can create a secure perimeter around your network. And the solution allows you to scale for large and growing service provider and enterprise requirements. The solution is targeted for deployment at peering points, data center and cloud edge, and enterprise WAN edge to effectively create a secure perimeter around networks. The vDDoS solution runs on the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Virtualized Services Module (VSM) and is scalable up to 40 Gbps per VSM.
The ASR 9000 vDDoS Protection solution is typically deployed as an "on-demand" solution but can be configured to work in persistent mode. In the "on-demand" mode, only the traffic addressed to the target of the attack is diverted to the vDDoS solution on the VSM; normal traffic is not affected. The vDDoS solution on the VSM module then identifies and blocks malicious attack traffic while allowing legitimate traffic to flow through to its original destination. Business operations continue uninterrupted, even in the midst of a DDoS attack. The ASR 9000 vDDoS Protection solution is a scalable solution allowing customers to incrementally scale up with just a license or they can install multiple VSMs in a single chassis, incrementally scaling to multiple times the capacity of a single Cisco ASR 9000 Series VSM. This scenario allows the service to scale for large and growing service provider and enterprise requirements.
