Please follow this guide carefully to enhance the protection of your DayZ server and protect it from potential DDoS attacks. It is crucial to stick to this guide, as any oversights in implementation could lead to your server becoming unresponsive during a DDoS attack. It's important to highlight that VYKIX's DayZ servers have consistently exhibited stability against DDoS attacks, and we are dedicated to maintaining this exceptional protection standard.
For the 2302 UDP (DayZ Game Port), it is imperative to establish a firewall rule following the specifications detailed below:
Next, you must configure a filter for the Game Port, as illustrated in the example provided:
For the 2305 UDP (DayZ RCON Port), navigate to the "Ratelimiters" section, where you should create a Rate Limiter to mitigate the risk of DDoS attacks:
