DOS attacks again Cisco Router

Subject: DOS attacks again Cisco Router

    Hi All,

 Were doing security hardening for our CISCO border router, for this we want 
to perform some attacks, especially DOS attacks, to check routers security,
  Ive dome a basic nessus test with unsafe check, after the test nessus 
reports a crash after a DOS attacks (malformed TCP packet), when checked the 
router I found that the routed wasnt crashed but the CPU usage has a pick of 
50%, may be if we perform DDOS by using several other machines or it will give 
better result, 
    My question is if there is modification in nessus scanning options or other 
options to make our attacks more harms? or what do suggest?  
    Best Regards,
  

Thanks
