FastACL Community is live. The world's first open-source DDoS scrubbing data plane for commodity hardware.

FD.io VPP plugin, inline filtering, all 12 RFC 8955/8956 FlowSpec components, IPv4 and IPv6, up to 1M active rules. Apache 2.0.

Hit with hundreds of Gbps of DDoS. Twice. So he built his own mitigation engine.

Peter-Paul Kurstjens built Sentry-Flow using FastNetMon's FastACL plugin for BGP FlowSpec on VPP. 81 automated tests per build. Not bad for a "non-developer."

A scrubbing centre can't protect traffic it never sees. BGP Unicast, FlowSpec, or API integrations get it there. Something still needs to trigger diversion and withdraw it when the attack ends.

BGP Flowspec is a mature protocol supported by the majority of telecom vendors, allowing you to mitigate the most dangerous volumetric DDoS attacks without the need for third-party DDoS scrubbing centres.

Blackholing (RTBH) and FlowSpec both mitigate DDoS attacks differently. RTBH drops all traffic for fast protection. FlowSpec filters only malicious traffic, preserving legitimate traffic. Use RTBH for speed, FlowSpec for precision.

People talk about FlowSpec being "precise" without ever showing what that precision looks like in practice. Here's the actual rule structure, the same one in our own documentation.

BGP FlowSpec is one of the most effective tools for automated DDoS mitigation...

FastNetMon Advanced adds full FlowSpec-based mitigation for Bison routers, even without native support, using an ACL/SSH integration layer.

Have you deployed FlowSpec in your network yet?
What blocked you — vendor support, hardware limits, operational risk, or “no time to change what’s working”?

BGP FlowSpec is built into FastNetMon Advanced.
If you’re running whitebox/disaggregated architectures, integrating open routing, or tired of slow manual playbooks, FlowSpec is likely your next mitigation step.
March 19, 2026 at 12:01 PM
In production today with FastNetMon, FlowSpec plugs into disaggregated, carrier-grade setups:

- Telemetry (sFlow/IPFIX) exported at line rate
- FastNetMon detects anomalies in real time
- FlowSpec rules fire automatically at the edge
- Legitimate traffic keeps flowing
March 19, 2026 at 12:01 PM
Where this is heading:
FlowSpec is moving deeper into open source and disaggregated networking.
We’re collaborating on modern routing stacks so FlowSpec isn’t locked behind a single vendor.
