  First of all, it depends on what Radware service you want to purchase. Radware sells physical devices but also provides mitigation tunnels to scrubbing center. In my experience, radware devices cannot quickly detect and block an attack. Unfortunately, this is not a great solution for massed attacks. In such situations, I also had to implement tagging and blocking of packets at traffic exchange points.

  So to sum it up:

  • Cloud Always-On DDoS- I do not recommend it due to sometimes high ping and interrupting GRE tunnels
  • Cloud On-Demand DDoS - I do not recommend it due to the long detection time and switching to attack protection
  • Hybrid On-Demand DDoS - It's not even worth writing about it, attack detection takes too long
  • Hybrid Always-On DDoS - It's a better solution if you don't care about ping, because all addresses are broadcast in their scrubbing center, which accepts the attack, and your company also has a physical device that detects whether the attack is actually blocked.

  If you are being attacked by a script kiddie, Radware will solve the problem, but if it is more of a massive attack, unfortunately their advertising gibberish about blocking the attack using AI within 10 seconds is fake.

  Ps 1. Cisco is reselling Radware under their name.
  Ps 2. In Poland, this is a very popular service used by most larger DCs.

  Thanks for this information.
