Hi,
I suggest you first take Incident Response Step #1 - Cut off the
attack.
ask your isp to apply ingress rules.
Remember now the packets doesnt seem to have a harmed you much,
But what if the router just pops off, u sure dont want to DOS
yourself.
and take measures to notify the isps from where these attacks are
erupting.

Subject: DoS/DDoS on port 1863(MSN protocol)
Hi all,
I work in an Satellite ISP(teleport) and we are experimenting a
Dos/DDoS Attack in our routers on port 1863.
Too much SYNs are being sent from a lot of our Public IP Customers to
1863 port to MSN Servers.
10.000 connections per seconds are generated in our TCP accelerators
systems, and overflows this system and borders routers.
We can identify the customers, but are too much. We cannot drop this
port because MSN application uses and we cannot apply policies to our
firewalls because the MSN Servers response to SYNs generated from our
customers.
We have Allot systems that perform filters by IP header, but really,
we need to filter by application layer.
Anybody has an idea to solve this problem?
Tks in advance.
