Default Did anyone hear what was up with vps25 yesterday?

It was down for about an hour, but there was nothing in the Network Status forum.

Hello,
It looks like there was an inbound DDoS attack to one of our clients IPs. Since this has happened twice (maybe 3 times) in the past 48 hours, we have shut down the container so it doesn't affect other VPS users.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

No problem, DDoS attacks don't happen that often on VPS servers. I guess you were just unlucky. The outage wasn't all that long though. From the graphs it looked like it was a couple of minutes.
