Hi all,

I'm using 128gb ram 16x2.6ghz vps plan. Today I was getting ddos so I turned on Manual DDoS mitigation, now status setted to red and it says Forced mitigation. However a few stressers attack me with ~60gbps attack as they say. However in logs I see only ~100mbps.

In my country, support works only from 9 AM till 6 PM so I can't get any help from it.

What to do? It seems that vacuum or professional usage doesnt help at all..

for the traffic graphs on your server, it seems that the attack didn't reach you in such a scale, and just had some small peaks of incoming traffic. So I understand that the VAC system did do its job.

Also, your server is still behind the VAC at the moment, and your manager seems ok, there is no warning.

OVH is actually capable of mitigating even the spamhauser attack that happened earlier this year.

Wow, three quick points in my opinion:

1) Why are you paying for a VPS of that size when a dedicated would probably be more effective?

2) Support is best via web tickets, you can try to phone during the work hours but they will most likely put you back to support tickets. I see people on the forums try to help out when they can, but most of the problems are billing/advanced beyond the scope of a forum. There's fairly little they can do if you are being DDOS'd at 60GBps (Somewhat doubt that large?).

3) Good god who did you annoy? Or do you run game servers and hence just script kiddies?
