Packet Flood Denial of Service Attack
We are currently experiencing a UDP packet fragment flood denial of
service attack.
Initially it was strong enough that it was saturating our links and
preventing incoming traffic from getting here, but it has decreased in
intensity and at this point is increasing latency but not blocking traffic
altogether.
