This article introduces you how to prevent SYN Flood attacks in Linux, the content is very detailed, interested friends can refer to, hope to be helpful to you.

SYN flooding attack (SYN Flood) is an attack method that uses imperfect TCP/IP three-way handshake to maliciously send a large number of packets containing only SYN handshake sequence. This attack method may cause the attacked computer to deny service or even crash, so that the potential connection takes up a lot of system resources and cannot be completed three times. If you are under a SYN flood attack on the Linux server, you can set the following:

Reduce SYN- timeout:

Iptables-A FORWARD-p tcp-syn-m limit- limit 1max s-j ACCEPTiptables-An INPUT-I eth0-m limit- limit 1/sec-limit-burst 5-j ACCEPT

Up to 3 syn packets per second

Iptables-N syn-floodiptables-An INPUT-p tcp-syn- j syn-floodiptables-A syn-flood-p tcp-syn- m limit- limit 1Compact s-limit-burst 3-j RETURNiptables-A syn-flood-j REJECT

Set up syncookies

Prevent ping commands

Sysctl-w net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_all=1

Block specific IP ranges
