🛡️TCPShield

What is TCPShield?

TCPShield is a high-availability DDoS mitigation platform.

Why use TCPShield?

When you use TCPShield, the IP address of your server will be hidden, thanks to the provided reverse proxy. This way, even if you suffer a DDoS attack, all illegitimate packets will be filtered out by their protection.

However TCPShield is free only for 1 terabyte of monthly bandwidth.

How to use it with nAntiBot?

You need to have a registered domain and a DNS service. In this tutorial we will be using Cloudflare.

Creating the account and setting up DNS

Create a TCPShield account https://panel.tcpshield.com/.
After that, create a network and give it a name, like the example below:
Copy the protected CNAME provided. It should look like this: "b89c987e47b422bcee0086c857c7546117d6f901.ipv4.tcpshield.com".
Create a CNAME entry, enter the desired subdomain and the protected CNAME from the previous step.

Pointing to your server

Go to the Backends panel and create a first set of backends.
After that, go back to your network configuration and add a domain. Also define the set of backends you created in the previous step.
