No offense, but maybe because it's so simple to figure out.
It's very helpful to use PG or firewall tweaks for those running
primaries. I stuck a couple of old boxes in some strategic locations
running as primaries with PG on them and just watched for a bit. I have
nothing shared on them so there's nothing to browse. The flooders
attached and started almost immediately but things have settled down
nicely in the last 4 hours or so. Either they go in spurts or they
figure out after a while they're being blocked and move on. Bandwidth
use dropped 60%.
