RulePerSecondLimit Property of IFPCConnectionLimitPolicy[C++]

FPCConnectionLimitPolicy.RulePerSecondLimit [Visual Basic]

[C++]

The RulePerSecondLimit property gets or sets the maximum number of connections that can be created for a rule during one second.

HRESULT get_RulePerSecondLimit(
  long* plLimit
);

HRESULT put_RulePerSecondLimit(
  long lLimit
);

Parameters

plLimit
Pointer to a variable that on return receives a 32-bit integer specifying the maximum number of connections that can be created for a rule during one second.
lLimit
A 32-bit integer that specifies the maximum number of connections that can be created for a rule during one second.

Return Values

These property methods return S_OK if the call is successful; otherwise, they return an error code.

Remarks

This property is read/write. Its default value is 1000, and its range of permissible values extends from 100 and 9,999,999.

When the number of connections created for a specific rule during the current second reaches the limit set by this property, ISA Server will not create another connection for new traffic that has no connection associated with it, the packets will be dropped, and an event will be generated. After the current second passes, the counter is reset, and new connections can be created during the next second until the limit is reached again.

Connections created for TCP traffic are not counted against the maximum number of connections that can be created for a rule during one second. Land attack detection can be enabled for TCP traffic. For more information, see LandAttackDetectionEnabled.
