if i did a max connection limit of 30 per ip, what happens when a user is downloading with 30 p2p connections, and then tries to open a web browser? it wont let any traffic go right? or will it kill one of the old connections, and open the new one?
Actually, it won’t let any traffic, if there are 30 other TCP connections.
It’s not so easy to select proper connection limit for networks with p2p (as P2P clients can generate enormous number of connections).
So if the client is using 30p2p connections, and they try to view a website, nothing will happen as no new connections will be made right?
exactly.
You can try to limit tcp connections to ports > 443. It works.
