either they are no problem or you do "man iptables"
voila - all new connections which are more than 5 per hour from the same
IP are dropped, i have similar rules for specific ports and max
connections per client for many years now - no rocket science
if one asks 100000 times per day that IP is blocked by hand for at least
2 weeks and if it continues until a well explained excuse comes in and
topic closed
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -i eth0 ! -s 192.168.196.0/24 -m conntrack
--ctstate NEW -m recent --set --rsource
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -i eth0 ! -s 192.168.196.0/24 -m conntrack
