Starting from 11:50pm CEST a massive ddos attack against an internal used subnet which is not permanently mitigated by our ddos filters has been started and lead to a service disruption. We've activated the ddos filter for the whole subnet to mitigate the ddos attack. Now we are filtering the attack completely and will leave the filters activated to prevent future attacks.
