To kill off TCP connections, you can use the 'tcpkill' command which is part of the dsniff package and can be installed/downloaded from here: http://monkey.org/%7Edugsong/dsniff/
Syntax:
tcpkill -i eth0 { expression }
Examples:
(a) Kill all outgoing ftp (port 21) connection:
tcpkill -i eth0 port 21
(b) Kill all all packets arriving at or departing from host 192.168.1.2 (host12.nixcraft.com)
tcpkill host 192.168.1.2
OR
tcpkill host host12.nixcraft.com
(c) To kill all IP packets between 192.168.1.2 and any host except 192.168.1.111, type the following:
tcpkill ip host 192.168.1.2 and not 192.168.1.111
After that, you can setup the ddos mitigation script and that should greatly improve the server's performance.
I recently switched to AYK Solutions from Softlayer for my dedicated server requirements. I received a much better specification server at significantly reduced cost from what Softlayer could offer me, with many of the previously 'extra' features at Softlayer included in the base price offered by AYK. The support was second to none, and they were extremely helpful in transferring all of my old server accounts over for no additional fee whatsoever.
Ayksolutions Customer Reviews Prompt, professional, efficient. I am currently using a shared account and plan on upgrading to a dedicated server...eventually when traffic picks up. The Ayk team is quick to reply to any concerns and does the best they can to correct the situation. I strongly recommend them for hosting.
My first experience with VPS and I din't really know what to do or what to expect. AykSolutions.com team help me and during the entire process, they are patient and problem solving peoples. Cheers,
