Hi Aaron, thanks for the info.  I=B9m curious what you or others do about
DDoS attacks to CGNAT devices.  It seems that a single attack could affect
the thousands of customers that use those devices.  Also, do you have
issues detecting attacks vs. legitimate traffic when you have so much
traffic destined to a small group of IPs?
