[采日] LifeLOG^1.0

Check whether it shows lot of SYN_WAIT / TIME_WAIT / FIN_WAIT. If yes its due to the high number of connections. You can reduce these by adding some rules to the Iptables.

# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,FIN SYN,FIN -j DROP
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN,RST -j DROP
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags FIN,RST FIN,RST -j DROP
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags ACK,FIN FIN -j DROP

# service iptables save
# service iptables restart

Adding rules to sysctl.conf

Also you can reduce these by adding some rules to sysctl.conf, the details given below.

# echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syncookies

Put following in /etc/sysctl.conf

# Enable TCP SYN cookie protection
net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies = 1

# Decrease the time default value for tcp_fin_timeout connection
net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout = 30

# Turn off the tcp_window_scaling
net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling = 0

# Turn off the tcp_sack
net.ipv4.tcp_sack = 0

A quick and usefull command for checking if a server is under ddos is:

# netstat -anp |grep 'tcp\|udp' | awk '{print $5}' | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
