Recibimos una alrma de un usuario que cree que están atacando con un DoS un servidor web:

Hi,
Is there anyway to block this IP 129.X.X.X at the firewall level?
we are getting many Hz wget requests from a single ip to the apache server on
server.bogus.net:
[...]
this a page to be display on a browser and takes several seconds 2 be produced.

al rato, de uno de los CC'd:

Hi,
That was 8000 requests to monitoring web page (with unsecured
connection) in fact imitating simplest DOS attack. I decide to
try it since all experts was in the same room (and there was
some comments about security).
But I went for cafe... so was not there when it was noticed.

que huevos..
