Hello friends!

 

I have an ER605 v2.0 and an SG3428 v2.30 switch, and I use Omanda Cloud on Linux.

 

For quite some time now, I've noticed that some Omanda logs don't show the IP address, in most logs to be exact.

 

Logs like the one below appear frequently, and it's not infrequent; out of nowhere, months go by without this type of record, and when it starts, it shows these records for months, but it doesn't show me the IP address so I can see where it's coming from:

Attack Detected on Gateway Warning ROUTER detected multi-connections ICMP Flood attack and dropped 374 packets.

 

This other record shows an external IP address.

Flood Attack Detected on Gateway Warning ROUTER detected stationary source TCP SYN Flood attack and dropped 218 packets. (Attack-Source=2xx.2xx.1xx.1xx).

 

Is the reason the IP address isn't showing up due to a configuration issue?

Hi  @MarceloMT 

Thanks for posting here.

This is because the router detected and successfully blocked malicious attacks on the corresponding WAN port.

The IP is the source of the attack.

It is recommended that you contact your Internet Service Provider to locate and further block this attack.

Hello friend, thank you for your reply.

 

I understand that in the log below, I see an IP address, I know it's an external attack, so far so good.

Flood Attack Detected on Gateway Warning ROUTER detected stationary source TCP SYN Flood attack and dropped 218 packets. (Attack-Source=2xx.2xx.1xx.1xx).

 

However, what's worrying me is this other log below which doesn't show any IP address. I don't know if it's an external or internal attack.

Attack Detected on Gateway Warning ROUTER detected multi-connections ICMP Flood attack and dropped 374 packets.

 

Shouldn't these logs show the originating IP address, regardless of whether it's an external or internal attack, to help solve the problem?
