I've seen several DDoS attacks targeting the Xbox shit talking kids. The normal garbage UDP floods >100k PPS doesn't seem to affect CCRs all that much. The last time the CPU jumped from 3% to maybe 10%. But recently I saw an ICMP flood type attack (yet again targeting the Xbox dipshits). The CCR1036-12G-4S did not like that at all. The CPU load was around 90% and winbox was very sluggish.

Most standard routers would die on that much pps of that size.

If you look on routerboard.com at the mikrotik stuff, they have charts at the bottom of most of their gear that show how much traffic they can move given the packet size and pps and Mbps etc.

Compare that with the CPU and you can get an idea of what it takes to switch/router or packet inspect stuff with rules.

I am trying to put some ddos attacks in perspective in terms of pps.

Here are two examples

545.4 Mbps/2.4 Mpps udp packet size less than 150byte

2.0 Gbps/8.5 Mpps udp packet size less than 150byte

What size router would fall over with 1+ Mpps of traffic.

example ubnt ER-8 clams 2Mpps.
