Recommended Rate Limit Configurations

Updated: 

 

Information

 

Summary:

Are there recommendations for how to configure the rate limiting options?
Environment:

Product: LoadMaster

Version: 7.2.52 and above

Platform: Any

Application: Any
Question/Problem Description:

Seeking recommendations on what values should be used for Maximum Client Concurrent Connection Limit, Client Connections/sec Limit, Client HTTP Requests/sec Limit and Client Bandwidth Limit.
Steps to Reproduce:  
Error Message:  
Defect Number:  
Enhancement Number:  
Cause:  
Resolution:
  • There is no generic "recommended" settings for rate limiting.  The best settings would be specific to each environment based on multiple factors such as the normal network traffic load, amount of users, etc.
  • If unsure, the LoadMaster could help to determine a baseline for the connection load on the Services.  Regarding connection statistics, the LoadMaster itself does have the ability to show this information. It can be found under the Real Time Statistics section.
