Connection Limit Overview
An internal user that initiates a large quantity of connections to external networks in a short period of time
occupies large amounts of system resources of the device, making other users unable to access network
resources normally. An internal server that receives large numbers of connection requests within a short
time cannot process them in time or accept other normal connection requests. To avoid such situations,
you can configure connection limit policies to collect statistics on and limit the number of connections.
