    * DDOS flooders send millions of packets such that difference of
    * timestamp between 2 successive packets is so small
    * (which is not like regular applications behaviour).
    * This script looks for this difference in time and if it sees
    * more than MAX_NB_PACKETS successive packets with a difference
    * of timestamp between each one of them less than
    * LEGAL_DIFF_TIMESTAMP_PACKETS ns,
    * ------------------ It Triggers an ALERT -----------------
    * Those settings must be adapted depending on regular network traffic
    * -------------------------------------------------------------------
    * Important: this is a rudimentary intrusion detection system, one can
    * test a real case attack using hping3. However; if regular network
    * traffic increases above predefined detection settings, a false
    * positive alert will be triggered (an example would be the
    * case of large file downloads).
