    Guys

    One of my client got DDOS on his website. He has visitor tracking module in his php script so he got almost 50,000 records during couple of hours. Normally he gets around 300 unique visitors per day but that DDOS added 50,000 records in tracking table. After extracting this data I got around 400 unique IPs.

    Will this work if I added all these IPs in IP Deny Manager?
    Will this stop DDOS from these IPs?
    Will server not treat requests from these IPs as grabadge load?

    Please help me to find this?

    Yes, banning the IP addresses is not solution to stop DDOS attack. You will need to use DDOS mitigation software to prevent the attack to your server.
