Abstract
A router is provided. The router includes a packet marking unit that inserts marking information generated based on an address of the router into a packet received by the router, according to a packet marking probability that is dynamically set, and a marking probability determination unit that calculates filtering efficiency of the router, and determines the packet marking probability based on the filtering efficiency. The marking information is used to obtain the address of the router by a device that has received the packet containing the marking information.
