Re: Re: Reg : Limiting http connections at Apache 2.4.25

[Velmurugan Dhakshnamoorthy <dvel.hex@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear All,  

Any specific setup to cut and disallow the the further HTTP connections after specified limit (ex: 50 sessions?).

My requirement is to allow only 50 users and 51st user should get a custom error message to login after sometime. 

Regards, 

Vel

Thanks for response, 

Yes my requirement is to completely restrict/disalllow any further connections, example I want to allow only 50 sessions,  51st connection should get an error message to login later  after certain period of time.

Indeed, but I don't think that's what the OP is looking for in an
apache proxy.  Rather the proxy reply with a "too busy" error page
than not take the connection at all, right?

The proxy balancer would be a place to look: that offers various
ways to determine how much traffic to send to a backend.  If that
doesn't meet your needs, there are several third-party traffic-
limiting modules.
