How do you come to this conclusion? I think a software-based router for enterprise level (let's say on the 1G per provider level) can handle a fair amount of zorching.
I presume by "a fair amount", I presume you mean "barely any"? At large packet sizes, an "enterprise level" router will just about handle a 1G DoS attack. Thing is, bandwidth DoS / DDoS is sufficiently easy to pull off on a large scale that a 1G DoS is pretty easy. Incidentally, most service providers use "enterprise level" as a by-word for mediocre quality kit, lacking in both stability and useful features. Nick
