Dear all,
does anybody have any experience throttling
the bandwith on a per ip/user basis with nginx?
Any pointers, ideas, etc. how to implement this
would be highly appreciated.
All the best,
-Armin

The only way to do it with nginx is to use request bandwidth
limits with connection number limits. See:
http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxHttpCoreModule#limit_rate
http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxHttpLimitZoneModule
This can’t effectively limit bandwidth for many small requests and
doesn’t allow flexible aggregate limits though. So it’s probably
better to use your firewall for bandwidth limiting instead.
