FoD is currently provided as a productive service in the GÉANT core network
using FoD software flowspy v1.1.
v1.5 is in pilot phase. It adds support for explicit port ranges in rule specifications
allowing more convenient mitigation with less rules,
provides a multi-tenant REST-API allowing for automated user mitigation instead of manual one with WebUI,
