There has been an unexpected technical issue encountered, as a result of which the Free Domain Forwarding Service is currently not functional.
Domain Names using the Free Domain Forwarding Service will currently not resolve to their specified destinations.
We regret the inconvenience thus caused and can assure you that we are trying our best to restore the service back at the earliest.
We will continue to keep you updated with the progress made during this operation.
Update: Due to excessive amounts of malicious inbound traffic to our Domain Forward Server, the datacenter has null routed the IP. The null route will remain in place until traffic levels become low enough to be manageable again.
The last we checked the guard was mitigating 993Mbps of traffic. We are awaiting fresh statistics on the attack rate & will update here soon. At this moment, we are trying to do everything possible to get the Domain Forward services back up, however we will need to wait till the attack subsides.
