Abstract
With the gradual replacement of IPv4 by IPv6, Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks that have plagued IPv4 appear in IPv6 more or less, and affect the normal operation of IPv6. However, the current research on how to construct a secure DDoS attack defense system under ipv6 is far away from satisfactory. This paper makes a detailed analysis of DDoS attacks from the aspect of causes, specific performance, architecture, classifies DDoS attacks according to the exploited vulnerabilities and analyzes the typical attack methods respectively. At the same time, the improvements and defects of IPv6 are further studied, along with the way to defend, summarizes how to defend against DDoS attacks in IPv6 from two aspects, and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of each scheme. Finally, how to build a more secure network security defense system in IPv6 is prospected.
