Default Uscentral19

Uscentral19 was recently hit with a large DDoS and the datacenter had to null route the IP. Note, we believe this is relates to the issue with Uscentral22 that we have resolved, so this should not happen again. The Null Route is scheduled to be lifted in about 3.5 hours. Thank you for your patience.

The main IP address for this server has been taken offline once more due to a DDoS attack. Once the traffic levels have reached normal once again the IP will be brought back online. This action is required to preserve the integrity of the network for all servers.

We have placed this server behind a hardware firewall to resume normal operations.

Due to the size of this attack the hardware firewall is unable to contain it and the IP has been taken offline once more.

Again the DC has null routed the IP. We are in contact with them for assistance.

We have added IP's to the server and put 200 websites per IP to start narrowing down this attack.

If the attack happens again it will only affect 200 websites and we can narrow down who is causing it easier.

All DNS zones have been updated as well as the server config files. Your website should be coming back online as soon as your local DNS updates to the new IP

We are currently having issues with our Data Center's Network and our server.

We are working to resolve this issue and hope to have everything back online very soon.

I apologize for the inconvenience.
