Hi All,

I have a doubt about the entries in the security log file.

If I have icmp 8,0 denied for external computers, when
someone pings, it create an entry in security log file:

Dec  5 14:01:12 server /kernel: ipfw: 3000 Deny ICMP:8.0 62.211.157.214
255.255.255.255 in via fxp0

But if such computer give a flood attack, I think it will
create the same entry.

How can I identify if an entry in security log file was creted
by simple ping or by a flood attack?

Thank´s to all,

Ronan
