Over the past few days we have been hit by large-scale DDoS attacks from Spain.
We have four private peers with Telefonica, the national broadband and telecommunications provider in Spain:
- Madrid 30G
- Paris 40G
- Ashburn,VA 20G
- Miami,FL 20G
Despite this capacity, our connection is saturated in Paris, where the DDoS attack is about 50 G whereas we only have a 40 G capacity.
We have stopped the BGP accouncements to Telefonica and the traffic has therefore been redirected. It is now arriving via Telefonica/Seabone/Ovh. We have several 100 G links in Europe and the US with Seabone and so the situation should return to normal (unless the peer between Telefonica and Seabone is saturated).
Date: 2016-05-05 09:29:42 UTC We are experiencing the same problem with all the traddic coming from Espanix, where we have a 30G capacity. We are stopping the announcements going to Espanix.
