Disable DDoS scrubbing

DELETE /api/v2/vps/{id}/ddos-scrubbing

End the active on-demand DDoS scrubbing session for the VPS primary IP. Returns 200 with the scrubbing state after the disable attempt (the same shape as GET /api/v2/vps/{id}/ddos-scrubbing). Errors use Problem Details with a stable machine-readable code.

VPS Services VM

Authentication

Required API scope: write:vm

Authenticate with an API key in the Authorization: Bearer <token> header.

Context

Path Parameters

id string required Example: vps_01hxa3b4c5d6e7f8g9h0j1k2m3

Public VPS ID. Get it from GET /api/v2/vps data[].id. Do not invent this value; use the exact ID returned by the referenced API response.

Responses

200 The DDoS scrubbing state after the disable attempt.
available boolean required

Whether on-demand DDoS scrubbing can be used on this VPS.

reason string · nullable required

Why scrubbing is unavailable, or null when it is available.

ip string · nullable required

IP address the scrubbing state applies to.

active boolean required

Whether a scrubbing session is still active.

durationSeconds integer · nullable required

Duration of the active session in seconds, or null when no session is active.

createdAt string · nullable required

When the active session started, or null.

expiresAt string · nullable required

When the active session ends, or null.

networkMitigation object required

Network-level mitigation state for the VPS IP. Action responses do not re-verify the platform-wide mitigation state, so this is typically "unknown" here — read GET /api/v2/vps/{id}/ddos-scrubbing for the verified state.

networkMitigation.status string · enum required

"active" when a mitigation is applied, "none" when verified clear, "unknown" when the state was not verified in this response.

active
none
unknown
networkMitigation.action string · nullable · enum required

"blackhole": all internet traffic to the IP is dropped. "scrub": traffic is filtered; services keep working. Null when status is not "active".

blackhole
scrub
networkMitigation.automatic boolean · nullable required

True for automatic attack responses, false for the customer's own on-demand session, null when unknown.

networkMitigation.createdAt string · nullable required

When the mitigation started, or null.

networkMitigation.expiresAt string · nullable required

When the mitigation automatically ends, or null.
