[AusNOG] Network Stress Test Results - Frightening speeds of 900+ mbits

[James Braunegg]

Dear Joel

Absolutely this "could be a booter system" although normally sources are a lot less than what we saw...

Regardless or not... someone is handing powerful tools to anyone who wants to use them... that's the worrying part.

Kindest Regards

Hi James

What you have just tested is known as a booter... nothing more...

Kiddies use these types of service to DDOS games servers every day.

The IP's are just compromised servers, unpatched servers, dns servers etc...

They are 100's of these booters on the internet, most are paid service

As you test different once you find they are from Asia, East Asia, USA, or EU, basically everywhere :) , depending on the owner and how good they are at finding unpatched/compromised servers.

Anyway that is my 2cents worth...

Regards
Joel

Dear All

Thought I would share some information on a website called ipstresser.com which allows you to stress test your network for free, the downside is the test is under rated and when you choose a 200mbit stress test you actually receive 900mbit + the site also allows you to test up to 32 hosts simultaneously.

All the information including results and tests can be found here for those interested !
