Limited rate of proxy_pass per IP?

Server NGINX
1

Hello,

Is it possible to limit proxy_pass rate per IP? Currently I can limit
conn per IP with firewall, but the most resource usage is behind the
application server. That’s why I want to limit it.

Thanks.

Thanks. I should have tried it before ask. I used it once, but then
replaced by a firewall solution. Now the hackers seem more intelligent,
they don’t request pages which are served directly by nginx. I’ll try it
again.
