## FAQ

### What is anycast.ac?

A service that protects websites from DDoS attacks and bots. Your traffic goes through our edge, we filter it, and only real visitors reach your server.

### Do I need to change anything on my server?

No. You change one DNS record. Your code, hosting and stack stay as they are.

### How long does it take to connect?

Adding a site takes about a minute. Then it depends on how fast your registrar updates DNS, usually a few minutes.

### What exactly do you protect?

Everything that runs over HTTP and HTTPS: sites, APIs, launchers, panels. We do not proxy game protocols over UDP.

### Will my site get slower?

Requests go through Frankfurt, Germany.

### What about the TLS certificate?

We issue a free Let's Encrypt certificate and renew it for you. Or you upload your own.

### Will my server see the real visitor IP?

Yes, in the X-Forwarded-For header.

### What if it is a real rush of players, not an attack?

Limits are tuned to your site. Planning a launch or a wipe? Tell us in advance and we raise the thresholds.

### How do I leave?

Change the DNS record back. Nothing is installed on your server, so there is nothing to remove.

### How much does it cost?

From $25 per month. You pay for the plan, not for the size of the attack.
