Blackhole for DDoS mitigation

[Andre Nathan]

Hello

Let's say I'm facing a DDoS attack against one of my IP addresses. The
attack is against a single IP, but it's flooding my network and taking
it dow, so I'd like to blackhole it in my Bird router to mitigate the
effects of the attack.

Is this configuration enough to blackhole an address, say a.b.c.d?

protocol static blackhole {
  table master;
  route a.b.c.d/32 blackhole;
  import all;
}

Thank you,
Andre
