| - | LiteSpeed Web Server version 5.0 introduces virtual host-level bandwidth throttling. This can be thought of as an extension of LSWS's **Per Client Throttling settings** explained as above, which allow you to control the amount of stress a single IP can put on your server. Virtual host-level bandwidth throttling allows you to customize bandwidth throttling, in Apache configs, for particular virtual hosts. Please check [[litespeed_wiki:config:vhost-level_bw_throttling|here]] for details. | + | LiteSpeed Web Server version 5.0 introduces virtual host-level bandwidth throttling.

| + | ==== Check concurrent connections ==== | ||
| + | To check how many concurrent TCP connections, you can run: | ||
| + | netstat -an | grep 80 | grep ESTA | wc | ||
| + | |||
| + | If you want to check concurrent connections sorted by IP, you can run the following: | ||
| + | netstat -ntu | grep ESTABLISHED | awk '{print $5}' | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | ||
| + | | ||
| + | Please keep in mind that ''netstat -ntu'' will list TCP in TIME_WAIT state, which will inflate the number. For correct concurrent TCP connections counting method, you should only count TCPs in ''ESTABLISHED'' state. Hence ''grep ESTA'' or ''grep ESTABLISHED'' will be required. | ||

| If an IP has been banned, but you don't know why, you can check it with SSH. Here is an example of a connection that was banned because it reached the hard limit. | If an IP has been banned, but you don't know why, you can check it with SSH.

| What if ModSecurity does a drop (TCP FIN) rather than deny for a trusted IP? The trusted list only has an effect on the "drop" action, but not on the "deny" action. A trusted IP won't be added to blacklist, but trust status has no effect on other actions. | What if ModSecurity does a drop (TCP FIN) rather than deny for a trusted IP?
