sounds like a denial of service attack on SBCs that were not configured properly or the attacker found a way to hammer them even with best practices setup. Maybe using very little traffic too. also one would think that attacker would spoof his source IP address and never want a response back so tracking down who did this is a huge pain. or maybe they flooded the whole pipe going to the SBC the old fashioned way. just guessing... normally the old ways of hurting an ISP work the best... terrorism to me is putting a bomb in the rack. cyber-terrorism to me is wanting page hits by a news company. m On Fri, 1 Apr 2011, Frank Bulk wrote:

Anyone have more information on this? Didn't seem important enough to make this list, if that's any measure.
