Block connections above 50mbps
Is there any way to block connections wich uses more then 50mbps? (floods)
Because my server keeps getting dossed wich 60-70mbps floods... and i already manually kept blocking those ip's for like the whole day now
Some more info:
I'm running a cod4 server on it, so it gets alot of connections but those are 40-50kbps each, i don't want to block those
Hope someone can help me with this

Well, yes and no.
Possibly if they do it for a few seconds or more with 50Mbit+ (as you cant block them if you don't know how fast it is before connection/flood for a few seconds)
there is. but most of this software isnt perfect and most of the time it doesnt work. Best just throttling instead.
I assume high bandwidth = many packets per second. So the easiest way would be to rate-limit the amount of packages per second. That can be done with a simple iptables rule.
can't you just do rate limiting in iptables?
agree with winston. I use this before but for other purpose. it just working.
