You are being DDOS'ed.  The query for ANY at isc.org accounts for about 95% of the attacks you will see.

Grab a copy of this script: http://wiki.opennic.glue/ddosDotPl
You may need to adjust NETMASK, and in rare cases CHAIN.  If you have a dedicated firewall, run the script from there, othewise run it on the server that you run your T2 on.  The script needs to be run as root (sudo *might* work, but has not been tested).

Once running, you can view what has been blocked by looking at the file /root/ddos.dns.  If you want to watch the activity in realtime, change DEBUG to 1 and run the script again.

This script tries to block against a few different types of attacks we have seen.  For even more protection, also look into the email Brian Koontz sent to the list on 8/22 ("Using iptables and hashlimits to throttle DNS abuse traffic").  Running both the throttling rules and ddos.pl should keep the attacks down to very manageable levels without affecting legitimate DNS queries.

Hi

 

dou you know your requests per second for your T1 or T2 servers?

 

 

I have round about 6 queries per second. About 4-5 queries are some stupid stuff (requesting ANY for isc.org ). A couple of weeks ago, I had about 200 queries per second. A web provicer located in France was using my T2 server.

 

An 5 minute updated view you will find here:
