Someone else asked a similar question a few weeks ago, but he wanted
to do some advanced "if this then that" session limiting.. Has
someone here done session limiting per host?
My situation is this: I have 2 direcway (Hughes now) satellites that
I'm sharing out to some clients. I only get about 50 sessions per
sat, so if any one of my clients has limewire or emule open with it's
default sessions set to 300, no one can browse, or it's extremely sluggish.
I had a Hotbrick doing the dual wan, and it had session limiting per
IP address. Now the hotbrick failed on me, and I need something else
to limit the sessions. Just a simple limit of say 15 sessions per
IP, or 15 new sessions / second per IP.
This site
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/articles/dynamic-iptables-firewalls.xml#doc_chap3
has some very good scripts, one that almost does that, but it's not a
"through traffic" limit. It's a limit directly to itself. Will this
work, or what modifications would need to be made to it? I'm not
really advanced enough in linux, and have not had the time to really try it.
Thanks
Mark
