DDOS attacks

Hello List,

Over recent days I have been experiencing intermitent DDOS attacks that have been crushing my firewall. The source IP addresses and timing have remained relatively consistent since the problem was discovered. I would like to perform some research on these IPs to better understand this attack. Specially, I would like to know if this attack is directed at me or a bot-net picking my network at random. Are there any sources of information that could help me make this determination?

I appreciate any help,

Brian
