PoC for shortlisted DDoS Vendors

[nanogml at ddos-mitigator.net (nanogml at ddos-mitigator.net)]

hi nanog,

back in april, Mohamed was reviewing the shortlist of DDoS appliances,
would you mind posting a summary of your findings 

  # partial list of DDoS appliances
  DDoS-Mitigator.net/Competitors

-----

? does anybody know which DDoS appliances uses IPtables to do its
mitigation ??

  iptables is good because it supports tarpit which can be used
  to counter attack the incoming TCP-based DDoS attackers

? Does any colo/datacenter ( in silicon valley or Las Vegas ) 
allow the customers to put a firewall at the ISP end of the pipe 
to prevent these ICMP/UDP floods from going down the pipe to 
the customer

thanx
