A global defense packet capture task captures discarded
packets, including those discarded by non-anti-DDoS policies such
as malformed packet check and packet filtering. In so doing, causes
for service interruption are exploited. After a packet capture operation
is complete, the global discarding packet capture becomes in Disable state. Enable this task upon the next packet
capture operation.
Context
The detecting device detects traffic, but does not process
the traffic. Only the cleaning device can discard packets. Therefore,
when you create a global discarding packet capture task, Device can be only the cleaning device.
Procedure
- Choose .
- On the Packet Capture Task page, click
.
- On the Create Packet Capture Task page,
select Global Defense Matched from the Type drop-down list.

- Set other basic parameters. For details, see Table 1.
Table 1 Creating a packet capture task
| Parameter |
Description |
Reference Value |
| Task Name |
Indicates the packet capture task name. |
The name cannot be empty or null. Characters, such as
apostrophes ('), vertical bars (|), backslashes (\), commas (,),
less than (<), greater than (>), ampersands (&), semicolons
(;), inch marks ("), and percents (%) cannot be included. |
| Sampling Ratio |
Indicates the ratio of the number of packets complying with
packet capture conditions to that of captured packets. |
The default value is 1024:1. In this
value, the device captures one packet from 1024 packets that match
packet capture conditions. |
| Captured Packet |
If the packet capture type is Global Defense Matched or ACL Matched, the value is the sum of packets
captured by the device.
When the number of captured packets
hits Captured Packet and a packet capture operation
is complete, the packet capture task becomes in Disable state.
If packets are captured on the basis of Zone Attack
Matched and Zone Anomaly Matched, the number of captured packets is the number of packets (of the
same attack or anomaly) captured by each CPU.
For example, a
device has four CPUs, Captured Packet is set
to 1000. If an attack with ACK and UDP flood
attack packets is launched, the packet capture result is as follows: - 4 x 1000 ACK flood attack packets are captured and four packet
capture files are generated.
- 4 x 1000 UDP flood attack packets are captured and four packet
capture files are generated.
After the packet capture operation is complete, the packet
capture task is in Enable state. Capture packets
upon the next attack.
|
The default value is 1000. |
| Automatically extract fingerprint |
- Disable
- Enable automatic filtering
|
This parameter is available only when Type is set to Zone Anomaly Matched.
|
- Click Next.
- Click
, click Cleaning Device to add network elements, and click OK.
- On the Create Packet Capture Task page,
click OK.
The Packet Capture Task page is displayed,
with the packet capture task in the list.
- Select the check box of a packet capture task and click
to enable the task.
NOTE: Only one global packet capture task can be
enabled on an AntiDDoS within a period of time.
