As per the trace file QPS is around 1,158. Not sure what are the specs of your server, but it is very less compared to other ISP's.


You need to rate-limit following IP's to around 20 QPS. All of these IP's are sending ANY queries for cpsc.gov. This is an amplification attack.

212.118.122.99/100/101


How you want to apply rate-limit is up to you. You can ask your security to do it or you can do it using iptables on the server.

I feel almost all redhat servers will have iptables installed by default.

Agreed but at least it minimize the problem,  as if request is 50 bytes and 
then  response also 50 bytes not more than that??
