Limit connections per user (IP)

RouterOS Beginner Basics

Hello guys,

As you can see in subject my question is about connections per one user.

I use this code:

/ip firewall chain=forward in-interface=bridge protocol=tcp connection-limit=40,32 action=drop

With this code every user should be limited on 40 connections.

Is this good? Dont know how to check.

I think you should also assign src-address in IP from.

It"s depends on your network size and services running in your network

5

You should be able to check more or less in the connection tracking table how many connections there are to any one give internal IP address.

6

You can log your rule

/ip firewall chain=forward in-interface=bridge protocol=tcp connection-limit=40,32 action=drop log=yes log-prefix=drop

then look your logs for this line and check if it works.

Best regards.
