    Hello,

    I need to protect my WHM Cpanel VPS against DDoS using nearby DDoS protected VPS. Anyone can guide me step by step how to achive that ?

    I have tried this but failed:

    On protected VPS:

    echo 'net.ipv4.ip_forward=1' >> /etc/sysctl.conf
    sysctl -p
    iptunnel add gre1 mode gre local YOUR_FILTERED_IP remote DESTINATION_SERVER_IP ttl 255
    ip addr add 192.168.168.1/30 dev gre1
    ip link set gre1 up


    On the remote server I wish to protect:

    iptunnel add gre1 mode gre local DESTINATION_SERVER_IP remote YOUR_FILTERED_IP ttl 255
    ip addr add 192.168.168.2/30 dev gre1
    ip link set gre1 up



    Thank you..

    Hello :)

    This is a custom network configuration, and there's no native options in cPanel that will automatically configure/enable this setup. However, searching for a term such as "cPanel GRE Tunnel" on Google yields several results. Feel free to let us know if you encounter any issues with cPanel after configuring this.

    Thank you.
