1. Move the website to DDoS-resistant reverse proxy like Cloudflare or Incapsula, using its current IP address; won't make much of a difference as attacker will go back to attacking the last known IP address. 2. Change the site IP address and only update it at the reverse proxy provider, not at any

You haven't indicated what the actual inbound attack volume is. If it's something your network core can handle, you can block the attack fingerprint upstream so it does not reach the 1Gb link. If it's UDP amplification chances are you can create a firewall rule. -PK
