By changing the redirect option it will allow you to choose whether you want traffic to be filtered 24/7 or to only filter in the event of an attack.
We highly recommend using "Redirect On Attack" mode, as this will give you the best latency.
Here is a quick breakdown for the redirect modes;
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| Redirect On Attack | When our system detects a DDoS attack, it will redirect your traffic through our Corero SmartWalls to scrub the back traffic out. (Roughly 8 second delay on redirect to DDoS filters) |
| Always On | Your traffic will flow through filters 24/7 regardless of whether there is a DDoS attack. This is good for very sensitive software/game servers that cannot have any sort of downtime. |
