Table 5

Characteristics of EDM-Fuzzy entropy curves of ARP traffic of botnet, DDoS, and normal status.

ā€‰BotnetDDoSNormal

ValueMostly between 0.1 and 0.4.Larger than 0.18 when the time scale is larger than 4.Smaller than 0.18.
TrendEntropy curves of all types of botnet traffic have an inflection point at a time scale of 30; 11 types have an inflection point at a time scale of 20.Gradually stabilized to a value between 0.3 and 0.5 when the time scale is larger than 10.Increase steadily from 0 to 0.18.
