I don't see how you could do this in realtime, unless it was only a single attacker. If a DDoS hit you it would take a long time to analyze the logs and determine what sequence the attack was working on.

that's exactly what i said. DOS is a single source attack. DDoS is multiple source. A DoS would be possible to cut off, a DDoS would be impossible
