Default Outage: Gator205

gator205.hostgator.com is currently experiencing a massive outage due to a denial of service attack. We are working with the datacenter in resolving this issue, however as of right now we have no ETA as to when this attack will subside. We appreciate your patience and will provide further updates as we get them. Thanks.

Gator205 is back online and responding at this time. The attack is continuing, but at a lower level. At this time the server has been placed under cisco guard network level flood protection. All sites on gator205 should be accessible at this time.

The attack's intensity has grown above the level the Cisco Guard can handle, the server has been temporarily null routed.
