I had issue attempting to get that IP restrictions module to work with CF
10.  Seems as though the request was getting handed off to CF before
hitting the IIS module. So it did not seem to work properly at least for
me. I didn't put too much effort into it, as our load-balancer actually
handles some of this mitigation. Any DDOS of significance would get alerted
to our Network Operations team proactively where they usually mitigate the
issue at the border routers, thus the LB or servers would never see the
traffic.

You might look into setting up a software based load balancing solution to
handle this. Something like Nginx which is a good bit more configurable
than IIS. There are also services that you can route your traffic through
like CloudFlare, which I believe just uses Nginx in the clusters.
