Everything looks up:

Only the awk side is getting a rump ride, the rest is fine.
Someones pissed off they couldn't drop a client behind our filtering so they went after the router at awknet itself :P
Been dealing with minecraft kids getting 10gbit+ UDP floods (according to justin) all week.

Ahh thanks, Probably from that post a few weeks ago were minecraft kids were using your VPS as filters for Minecraft.
MC's are simply becoming a huge target and it's no single client getting wacked.
Alas, i'll have to double up the capacity we have at awk since it's maxing out the gbit we have for TCP filtering.
UDP still tanks no sweat but Justin isn't going to eat 12Gbit/sec all day long for the public prices he charges.

I hope he has some killer transit deals, otherwise he may be pissed off :P
He has 60 gigs or whatever in LAX.
I know he has a big client that he tanks ~20gigs for and the rest is for reg customers.

You know, I am getting sick of these buyvm is down threads. Can we make them one giant BuyVM downtime thread?
The power stuff is resolved, DDOS on DDOS protected ip's is kind of an expected thing.
As mentioned in antoher thread, I already asked awknet for a 2nd gig port so I can chew technically 2x the TCP.
I'll likely document and enforce certain limits we'll deal with for TCP before we'll apply a temp nullroute.
Probably something around 750,000 <> 1M pps of SSYN. Not sure yet, I've left it to Aldryic & Anthony to decide.
I'll have to handle the code side of things.

This would be one of those unnecessary overreactions you refer to in your sig.
Are you saying I'm not allowed to have an unnecessary overreaction too?
Minecraft is a computer game right, what's the point of ddosing a game server? Just curious, I haven't played a computer game since the 90s. Don't recall anyone hitting any servers back then (just in-game hacks).
So other people can't play? It's like when someone takes your toy you want to take it back. That's how they think.
Kids get mad when they get banned from a server and want to feel superior, so they go to hackforums.net and pay $5 for booter.
It is more like those kid fights "Momma, if I can't play, he can't play too ".
It isn't any of the $5 booters I can tell you that.
I'm figuring there's paid hits going around. Someone linked me to a pretty interesting thread on hackforums that kind of backed this idea up.
The paid booters are all in the ~300K pps range.
Francisco
Thanks! I understand better now. If it was me, I'd just use another server if I got booted... man these kids today are vicious! Surprised they can get 10Gbps of packets sent on the cheap, not to mention it sounds far too excessive. :P
Trust me, NOTHING on HF can output 10gbit/s. NOTHING. The best I've seen in action is ~2.5 gbit/s on a $60 booter advertising 4gbit/s.
For what it's really worth, most of them use all the same botnet.
Right.
A lot of them rent boxes or use the atomicAPI to dish it out so yea, they're all around the same strength. Ecatel and a few others do sell unmetered 100mbit boxes with spoofing enabled so ~160k pps per box is about right.
