connlimit counters start over after iptables restored

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a connlimit rule in iptables that allow only 5 connection to port 80.

iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -m tcp --syn --dport 80 -m connlimit
--connlimit-above 5 --connlimit-saddr -j DROP

This rule works fine till I restore iptables. After restore rules,
connlimit counters start over and clients/attackers can open 5 more
connection.

Is it possible to avoid this situation?
