OVH Game DDOS Demand

AshleyUkAshleyUk Member
in General

Hey LET,

Looking to maybe broaden our offering outside of our core Storage/Plex servers, currently have some small other plan's which do well on LET, however wanted to see if there is much demand for VPS's on OVH Game's servers/Game DDOS protection. If so what kind of plan's people would be looking for, obviously in the LET price range!

Cheers

Mods if this is better off in the Off-Topic please move there!

    Works great for game servers and Teamspeak, it's something I've done for a while on it.. :)

    Edit: Downside is obviously the disk space-RAM ratio if you're using it for VMs.

    Buy the cheapest game server, max it out to 256 IP's, transfer the IP's to your other servers and cancel the game server.

    You can still edit and add game anti ddos rules to those IP's and use them on non crappy servers!

    EDIT: Just checked and my IP's have all been changed to non-game IP's, but they used to be even after I cancelled the server

    This is interesting, sure this is possible? Might be a bug or something ^_^

    Would definitely be interested in ovh ( Canada ) game protected vps running windows.. 1-2 core, 1-2 GB ram, 10-25 GB SSD... $7-15 a month

  • pailypaily Member

    Would be interested too, if it will be hosted in france. Would use it for teamspeak only.

    Just out of curiosity, did you try the normal OVH virtual servers? Without the game DDoS protection. How did that work?

    But, does it make any difference? Someone should get a Kimsufi, SoYouStart, normal OVH and a Game DDOS OVH.

    Put a Gameserver on it, DDOS it. Messure it. GG.

    A few months ago we ran a pilot with our game/voice server customers, there difference was nihil. They didn't really notice the difference, so it wasn't a good idea to invest in the Game DDoS protected servers.

    So I guess, OVH detect it automatic which type of application it may be and its just marketing to sell it for higher prices?

    The Game DDOS you can specify which application / game is running off the IP.

    It creates rules and DDOS filtering which does not effect the packages required by that application, for example dropping certain UDP.

    Well, lets put it to the Test. OVH Talks much.

    Since they have DPI, they can easy check if thats a Package for a Gameserver related Service and apply the filter automatically.

    I know I am yet to test it, but was looking to see what interest there may be.

    OVH / OVH GAME: The Normal OVH is shity. **The OVH Game Server protection is like a stone wall** if you dont got some Private Script close to no way to down it.

OVH (FR/CA): High Volume Filtering (480Gbps+), Long time for adjusting filters, cheap, a lot of bypass attacks, heavy packet loss under ddos (because of aggressive filtering of ts3init1 method), sensor and always-on filter

OVH GAME (FR/CA): High Volume Filtering (480Gbps+), Long time for adjusting filters, cheap, **no packet loss under ddos**, always-on filter

    Remember that these 2 are reviews from scrip kiddies who try to DDoS anything what they can. This is teamspeak specific.

    I'd suggest you make a teamspeak only vps deal since is see people looking for that in EU

    1vCPU

    512mb RAM

    30Mbits unlimited/able to burst to 100Mbits

    5G Storage

    This would be prefect for Teamspeak hosting even for someone with ~500 users and that's the maximum you should see. These are my server graphs with ~400 users at peak times http://i.imgur.com/jNGh2nM.png . Only thing you should consider is that some people want to install musicbots(stream radio to server) on their VPS too and that's a bit CPU heavy.

    If you want it in BHS I could 1GB/30GB for that.

    @EVM_Mike BHS?

  • linuxthefishlinuxthefish Member

    Could you use the vrack between servers to use game IP's on a non game server?

    They dont include VRack with the game servers, probably for that very reason :(

    You can setup vrack for the game servers, I have it for a few ranges on mine but just don't have it in use currently.
