[Solved] Simulate DDoS attack on my Cloudflare server
I'm using my own server, but I'm working on a school project where I have to simulate a D/DoS attack and write a report based on the simulated attack. I can't open a support ticket because I'm using the free plan.

You’re probably going to want to unproxy to actually test your server. You likely won’t be able to generate enough traffic to impact Cloudflare.
But also you can make an account ticket on free plan if you really want to get confirmation
wdym? is there a guide I can follow beside this: https://developers.cloudflare.com/ddos-protection/reference/simulate-ddos-attack/ ?

Unless you have significant computation and network resources you won’t have enough traffic to make a dent on Clousflare’s bandwidth
ah, thank you!
