Theoretically, you stop responding to pings over the wan and you enable the 'firewall' on the Shub. In reality these things will not help you one iota and will likely end up restricting you more than they do a potential attacker.

You are unlikely to ever see a real DDoS attack. If you are at risk of such, you need to look in to far more heafty measures than the Shub will ever offer.
