"Brutes" rules with UDP?

[Jordi Espasa Clofent]

Hi all,

I use the next rule:

# SSH brutes protection
pass quick on $bridge inet proto tcp from any to $vlan10  port 22 keep 
state \
        (max-src-conn 20, max-src-conn-rate 3/12, \
        overload <ssh_brutes> flush global)

with success. No problem, all works fine.

I wonder if I can apply this type of rule to UDP connections (I try to 
protect some busy DNS servers)

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that 
brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass 
over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner 
eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only 
I will remain.
