Hi, NANOGers.
] access-list 150 deny udp any any eq 1434 log-input
Be _very_ careful about enabling such logging. Some of the worm flows
have filled GigE pipes. I doubt you really want to log that; Netflow
is a better option in this case. Too much logging will raise the CPU
utilization to the point of creating a DoS on the router.
Thanks,
Rob.
