I used gce 4vcpu   8g ram  in Taiwan
download bandwidth about 120mbps

I saw some documentation like this
https://cloud.google.com/files/GCPDDoSprotection-04122016.pdf?hl=zh-tw

Now I set up
1. firewall rule -  only access Taiwan IP,  only open 3 TCP port.
2.pub/sub
3.api rate limit

These can anti some ddos.

But still have some ddos method like "tcp-ack"  "LDAP"  etc..
And I used wireshark to catch attack's IP.
I saw about 15,000 attack's IP from Taiwan.

How can I anti ddos?
Thank you

Hello Ting,

The link that you already provided has plenty of information on the best practices to protect from DDoS attacks. As per the information provided, you have configured already your GCE instance to allow traffic only from specific IP in Taiwan and limited the ports to the ones that you might need. Besides this, you might want to consider deploying third-party DDoS protection solutions as described in the link. 

However, DDoS attacks are performed on any public IP,  which could be hosted on any cloud infrastructure or on-premise servers and you can't prevent this from happening but rather protect your instances from suffering from them.

I hope this information helps.

Marilu
