Rust DDoS Protection

Please follow this guide carefully to enhance the protection of your Rust server and protect it from potential DDoS attacks. It is crucial to stick to this guide, as any oversights in implementation could lead to your server becoming unresponsive during a DDoS attack. It's important to highlight that VYKIX's Rust servers have consistently exhibited stability against DDoS attacks, and we are dedicated to maintaining this exceptional protection standard.

VxShield Filter Manager

Rust Game Port (28016 UDP)​

For the 28016 UDP (Rust Game Port), establish RakNet (Rust, MC Bedrock, Terraria, 7 Days to Die, ...) filter following the specifications detailed below:

Filter for Game Port

For the 28018 TCP (Rust RCON Port) you must implement Battlemetrics RCON TCP filter as delineated below:

Filter for RCON Port

Rust App Port (28019 TCP)​

If you want Rust+ App to be enabled and protected, add Rust TCP App for port 28019 TCP:

Filter for App Port

Following these meticulous steps, your Rust server will be fortified with our DDoS protection, ensuring the uninterrupted operation of your server under the VYKIX shield.
