Wait, can an IPS really handle all that automatically? Sounds too good to be true!

I think an IDS is more about detection, not prevention.

Whitelisting seems too restrictive for this situation, but I guess it could help if we know which IPs are safe.

Blacklisting sounds familiar for stopping specific IPs, but I wonder if it would be effective against a large-scale DoS attack.

I remember practicing a question about IDS and IPS, but I can't recall if IDS can actually stop attacks or just detect them.

I think an IPS would be the right choice since it can actively block attacks, but I'm not entirely sure if it can create ACLs automatically.
