Hi,

I have a server with FloodGuard Protection enabled. But where can I find some reporting of it in Orbit? I would like to know if it works.

Best regards,
Mariusz Jokiel

There is no graphs at the moment. The only way you could find out would probably to ask support about it.

I believe they are in the midst of replacing the floodguard only solution to one which involved several other services such as riverhead/cisco and the tippingpoint solutions. At which time floodguard (if I recall correctly) would be integrated into the system and be offered for free. Those paying for floodguard would get priority to this system and also get the statistics.

there is something that shows up sometimes (i think when floodguard is actually used?) in orbit under Cisco Guard Flood Mitigation Reporting - but i havn't looked at it too much so can't tell you much about it sorry.

Yes, I believe that if floodguard/whatever-its-called-now is called in to action, you will get a report in orbit. If it hasn't been used, then there's nothing to report anyway.

Is Floodguard service is free included in SM plan or you have to buy it. If I have to buy it how much ?

They no longer offer Floodguard as an option as they are currently deployment a datacenter wide DoS mitigation framework which would be free for everyone. This is a combination of Floodguard, Tipping Point and Cisco/Riverhead solution.

so what about us that pay $10 a month for floodguard?

January 31, 2005. All new security services reporting will be available in our SecurePack service. For only $20 per server, you will get access to Cisco Guard XT reporting, Arbor network reporting, Tipping Point reporting, ISS host based reporting, and firewall graphs. All current FloodGuard customers will be converted to this reporting service as the remainder of the FloodGuard systems are retired. This will be the most comprehensive security service available in the hosting marketplace. This service will come standard on the Focus Series Server line.
