Abstract

This document specifies an extension to the DistributedDenial-of-Service Open Threat Signaling (DOTS) signal channelprotocol so that DOTS clients can control their filtering rules whenan attack mitigation is active.

Particularly, this extension allows a DOTS client to activate ordeactivate existing filtering rules during a DistributedDenial-of-Service (DDoS) attack. The characterization of thesefiltering rules is conveyed by a DOTS client during an 'idle' time(i.e., no mitigation is active) by means of the DOTS data channelprotocol.
