Abstract
Aspects of detecting and mitigating denial of service ('DoS') attacks over home gateway network address translation (“NAT”) are disclosed herein. According to one aspect disclosed herein, a home gateway system can detect that a NAT table is overpopulated. In response to detecting that the NAT table is overpopulated, the home gateway system can determine a mitigation action to be performed. The home gateway system can then perform the mitigation action in an attempt to mitigate an effect of the NAT table overpopulation.
