Limiting bandwidth based on IP
Hello, I have a wordpress site hosted in a vps, lately it was found that my vps was sending DOS attacks to other servers. I am not sure if there is any vulnerability in the plugins i use, however disabling them now would cost me a lot. Each of my website visitor hardly consumes 10mb of bandwidth each day, so as for now i planning to place limitation on bandwidth(say 100mb per day) to every IP's that my vps makes connection with, any easy way to make that possible?
Thanks in advance.

Why do you make 2 threads?
It was unintentional, i got disconnected in my previous attempt to post this thread, so i thought the thread were not posted, so did it once again. I realize now that the connection was lost only after the thread was posted, I have requested mods to delete the other one. Sorry for the trouble.
Keeping a backdoored plugin is just asking for trouble. And are you sure that your whole VPS isn't hacked?
Hello, install csf firewall, it has a settings which limit the outgoing packets in order to block outgoing ddos attacks
I am doing this only as a temporary solution, so that i could have more time to troubleshoot the issue.
Thanks, i will try this, will this tool work smooth in 512mb ram vps?
That you need to test and tell us, but -60/70% it will work just fine.
