ACLs in the server are not enough, you also need ingress filtering on
the borders of your network, to prevent packets claiming to be from
your network to get inside.

If the congestion is on the link, yes, you are right. If it is on the
server, filtering solutions may be sufficient if there is an easy way
to sort out the bad traffic from the good one, and if they are faster
than the name server (Netfilter on Linux is fast, for instance.)
