Limit https connections to web server
Permalink  

Hi,


I have a problem with excessive https sessions to our webserver from different source IP's. Because the source keeps changing is it possible to apply a global setting limiting https connection within a certain time period? I have been able to alert on this by using smartdefense but not protect.


Thanks


Marc

The problem is that Checkpoint is NOT Cisco PIX.  Pix Firewall has a feature to do this like:


static (inside,outside) outside-ip inside-ip max half-open


where max=maximum connection to this IP


half-open=max embryonic (half-open) to this server


I asked Checkpoint TAC on this 2 years ago and didn't get


any solution from them, bastard.


I feel your pain my friend.

Thanks for confirming my fears. It looks like I will have to do this on a different platform.


You have hit the nail on the head with the words pain and checkpoint!


Marc
