Limit SPEED of new TCP connections

Hi,

I have been searching this forum for couple of hours and all I found is answer how to limit number of TCP connections. But this is not a good thing if you want to give your customers quality service.

Is there a way to limit max connections per second or minute?

If this was already answered just refer.

Thanks

You could try a filter rule with protocol=tcp tcp-flags=syn,!ack
and put a limit=xxx or dst-limit=xxx restriction on that rule.

The tcp-flags=syn,!ack are indicating a new TCP connection setup, therefore no more new TCP connections can be established once the limit kicks in.
