Today’s iptables FUN!
Ok, after this morning’s DDoS, I started rummaging around for ways to limit the amount of hurt that my server would handle. And I found the limit function in iptables.
/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -d 10.125.1.250 \
--dport 80 -m limit --limit 6/m --limit-burst 10 -i eth0 -j ACCEPT
/sbin/iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -s 10.125.1.250 \
--sport 80 -m limit --limit 6/m --limit-burst 10 -o eth0 -j ACCEPT
This should help get some of the requests under control.
Also, I discovered this interesting application called tc. Going to see how I can integrate this with some iptables rules.
