Hi.

I recently set up a Valheim server on one of my computers (it’s a game vaguely like… minecraft?) to play it with my niece and nephew, and so I opened the required ports on my Hub and promptly got a letter saying something here had participated in a DDOS attack.

Could it be the traffic from the server itself that was detected?

Cheers

A quick Google brings up this link:

That post on the game’s bug tracker site suggests that it could be your game server traffic.
