Connection Rate Limit Mode is set to Per Virtual Server and Source Address, you might encounter unexpected results. Once a particular client is above the limit, other clients (other source IP addresses) are also throttled by the system.
The virtual server throttles clients that are not exceeding the connection rate limit.
This occurs in the following manner: There is a configured connection rate limit per virtual server per client; one client exceeds the configured rate limit; and the virtual server also throttles other, unrelated clients.
None.
Connection Rate Limit Mode when limit is exceeded by one client no longer throttles others.
