Flowspec (Custom)
Traffic Type Response Integration
Prior to creating a Flowspec plugin, you will need to configure at least 1 device with a unicast BGP neighbor.
Flowspec (Custom) differs from Flowspec in that it allows for a custom rule to be added. Rules are written in the flowspec token language, e.g. match destination DSTIP then discard

Different vendors and products may have their unique documentation and prerequisites for this setup. Below are example links to configure devices with a unicast BGP neighbor:
