Gwen Shapira commented on KAFKA-1512: ------------------------------------- It sounds like I can completely block specific IPs with: max.connections.per.ip.overrides=192.168.1.1:0 Or selectively allow only specific IP to connect with: max.connections.per.ip=0 max.connections.per.ip.overrides=192.168.1.1:20 Not an objection, just checking my understanding of this feature. > Limit the maximum number of connections per ip address > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: KAFKA-1512 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1512 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Jay Kreps > Assignee: Jay Kreps > Attachments: KAFKA-1512.patch, KAFKA-1512.patch > > > To protect against client connection leaks add a new configuration > max.connections.per.ip > that causes the SocketServer to enforce a limit on the maximum number of > connections from each InetAddress instance. For backwards compatibility this > will default to 2 billion. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
