Our web host is saying that they are getting 500 requests a second from our computer. This triggers an autoblock on the server and locks out our IP. How can I see what is causing those requests in Wireshark? asked 12 Sep '11, 06:48 Ohno |
One Answer:
Simply put an IP filter to your IP address and your hosting servers IP address and verify if there are 500 request per second. If true read this other thread: answered 12 Sep '11, 06:59 Landi edited 12 Sep '11, 07:00 |
For s atart: Do a short capture and then look at the capture... :)
500 requests/sec should be pretty obvious in the capture.
Of course, if the server has locked out your IP you may see nothing or just attempts to connect to the server which are rejected (or which timeout).
