Basically DOS attack stand for Denial Of Services attack are used for preventing users to excess a network service. What ppl do is they launch attack on a specific server and shut it down this shutdown can be temparory and the server get back on track within few hours but it can also make the server sleep for a long time.

These attack are basically based on ping, with lots of packets of data which are difficult for the host machine to collect so it just got hanged. There are three possibilites what could be the result of such attacks

1) Hang the remote system.
2) Reboot.
3) Crash the remote server/system.
