- viraptor 5y agoSoftware solutions at the receiving end are meaningless for stateless DDoS. It doesn't matter how quickly you drop/filter packets if your physical connection cannot receive any more of them. You need to ensure the traffic never saturates your connection in the first place to avoid issues - this can only be done on the sending end or somewhere on the path to you.
