IP packet flooding is possible because end-hosts have no choice but to receive packets addressed to them. The main thesis of this paper is that end-hosts are in the best position to detect DoS attacks and thus should be {\em given control to respond to such attacks}. We present two solutions that achieve the following properties by giving end-hosts more control over which packets they receive.} }
