Recently, I experienced a bad PC flooding the network - basically, it brought it to a halt. I have three networks, one is the ISP and the other two are subnets. One of the PC just started spewing - from the TCPdump, all i got was "unknown protocol" and the mac address.
After reading, i think the issue was related to BAD_TCP_PACKETS but i cannot find anything in shorewall related to blocking/filtering bad packets. Anyone have any idea on how to prevent a single internal device from bringing a network to a crawl. The Router is a gentoo install which does the firewall and routes traffic between two subnets, both usign d-link managed switches.
