Bet that'd summarise quite nicely.  Unfortunately there aren't many 
decent tools for helping you do such as best as I've seen (if anyone

The people on the NANOG (North America Network Operators Group) mailing 
list seem to swear by Spamhaus's DROP list (Don't Route or Peer):
http://www.spamhaus.org/drop/ and the Team Cymru BOGON list: 
http://www.team-cymru.org/Services/Bogons/
Quite often 'addresses' used in the munged address of packets used in 
DDoS attacks are BOGONs (e.g. unroutable addresses like 192.168.0.0/24, 
or non-allocated addresses).

I keep meaning to knock up a script that will automatically parse those 
lists for use on a BSD firewall I've got kicking around, curious to see 
what kind of hit rate we would get.

For post-disaster reading there was a long discussion about the state of 
DDoS back in the beginning of December, might be interesting reading: 
http://www.merit.edu/mail.archives/nanog/msg15492.html

At times the mailing list can bias significantly towards n, but the s/n 
ratio is usually very good, if you're operating a network at all I'd say 
it's worth subscribing to.

Hope these help,
Paul
