We just saw a huge flux of traffic occur this morning that spiked one of our 
upstream ISPs gear and killed the layer 2 link on another becuase of a DDoS 
attack on UDP port 80.



Wireshark shows this appears to be from a compromised game server (call of 
duty) with source IPs in a variety of different prefixes.



Only solution thus far was to dump the victim IP address in our block into the 
BGP Black hole community with one of our 2 providers and completely stop 
advertising to the other.



Anybody see this recently and have any tips on mitigation,  reply on or off 
list.



Thank You,
