Hi Andras, I guess you are using JUNOSe 8-0-x, or?
Suspicious Flow Control (DOS prevention phase 3) was introdced in JUNOSe 8.0 and is turned on by default. http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/erx/junose80/swconfig-system-basics/html/passwords-security-config10.html#1210684 The message shows you, that a lot of packets with TTL=1 reach your box. http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/software/erx/junose80/swconfig-system-logs/html/event_categories66.html#636773 With Suspicious Flow Control you are able to protect the ERX control plane (in short words).
