I’m working on a server implementation and I’m wondering how quickly attackers can switch ip addresses.
I know with UDP attackers can actually just send in whatever ip address they want, but with TCP a connection will be dropped if the client doesn’t respond in the handshake. (if you have a timeout configured)
I’m wondering how quickly attackers can switch ip addresses to overload a server that accepts TCP connections. I know people can switch ip addresses with a vpn, but I’m not sure on the speed. Like every second? Or every 5 minutes? Or instantly?
