Let's say that we have two virtual hosts serving two domains: blog.com and store.com. Let's suppose that we need to apply the following limits: - blog.com: no more than 5 connections per ip, and no more than 50 total connections to the virtual host - store.com: no more than 10 connections per ip, and no more than 100 connections to the virtual host.
Considering that. Which would be the correct aproach? ## ---------------- Approach 1 ---------------- ## http { limit_conn_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=conn_per_ip:5m; limit_conn_zone $server_name zone=conn_per_server:5m; server { server_name blog.com; limit_conn conn_per_ip 5; limit_conn conn_per_server 50; ... } server { server_name store.com; limit_conn conn_per_ip 10; limit_conn conn_per_server 100; ... } ... } ## ---------------- Approach 2 ---------------- ## http { limit_conn_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=blog_conn_per_ip:5m; limit_conn_zone $server_name zone=blog_conn_per_server:5m; server { server_name blog.com; limit_conn blog_conn_per_ip 5; limit_conn blog_conn_per_server 50; ... } limit_conn_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=store_conn_per_ip:5m; limit_conn_zone $server_name zone=store_conn_per_server:5m; server { server_name store.com; limit_conn store_conn_per_ip 10; limit_conn store_conn_per_server 100; ... } ... } Notice that in the first approach only two memory shared zones are declared, while in the second approach, four of them are declared. I appreciate any clarification on this! Thanks in advance.
