We switched from a cisco router to using a gentoo box with mutiple nics
- all appears to be working very well. However, i ran into a major
problem when one of my PC's went nuts. It flooded the network with
"unknown protocol" which I saw from tcpdump.
Basically, I am trying to find a way to protect the internal network
from bad network devices. This did happen when under the cisco setup
but it did not bring the network down. I'm assuming we need a little
bandwidth control (TC) implementation but is there any tricks in the
kernel/network setup which will help as well.
Any pointers will greatly help!
