[nsp-sec] DDOS to 163.6.5.36 ongoing

Patrick, most of what I am seeing is towards the .36 ip address.
I am not sure they moved the attack to follow your dns changes.
The .80 address isn't receiving many packets (19 records today) and what it is receiving mostly has the ack flag set which I consider normal:)
The .50 address had 0 records.


The .36 is receiving mostly syn and resets (18k records today). 
The ingress and egress interfaces are constant per attacker so I don't believe this is a spoofed attack.

Now for the weird part:) Maybe this is some new style pulse attack but I am seeing some ips with 2-5 records in a row.
Given that we sample at 1/1k that is unusual. 
During most floods I see individual ips repeated but usually NOT in a row like this.
Even a busy hid nat ip will usually have other ip addresses mixed in to the point that they only get a record or max 2 records in a row.

The source TCP ports from a single IP address do not appear increment normally indicating a potentially crafted packet.

For any given source IP address I checked the packet size was constant usually 48 but I saw some 64 byte and other sizes of packets.
