OK, so here's some info: Fedora23 running in VirtualBox on a Windows 7 Host.
Public-facing router has no DMZ, but port forwarding from 2325 (external) to 1194 (internal) and the internal static IP.
Running iftop
, I'm getting a huge amount of incoming/outgoing traffic (50-70 mbps):
revolve-mainframe => 104.23.119.177 54.6Mb 35.4Mb 8.84Mb
<= 0b 0b 0b
revolve-mainframe => v.pr.h.cpvps.us 0b 643b 210b
This bogs down our office's internet, needless to say.
Running the following commands to block the IPs fixes the issue:
[root@revolve-mainframe sysconfig]# sudo route add -host 104.23.118.177 reject
[root@revolve-mainframe sysconfig]# sudo route add -host 104.23.119.177 reject
[root@revolve-mainframe sysconfig]# netstat -r

Now the question is, is this a result of a DDoS attack? If I unblock those two IPs, I get a flood of incoming packets from all kinds of different IP addresses.
But it is only two specific IP addresses that I have to block to stop the flood.
Or is it that my server has been compromised and being used as a DDoS source?
Or...?
