Setting Session Limits
Session Limit allows you to specify the total number of sessions allowed, per user, over an IP
(Internet Protocol) connection across the VPN firewall. This feature is enabled on the Session
Limit screen and shown below in Figure 4-14. Session Limit is disabled by default.
To set session limits:
1. Select Security from the main menu and Firewall Rules from the submenu. The LAN WAN
Rules screen displays.
2. Click the Session Limit tab. The Session Limit screen displays..
3. Click the Yes radio button under Do you want to enable Session Limit?
4. From the User Limit Parameter pull-down menu, define the maximum number of sessions
per IP either as a percentage of maximum sessions or as an absolute.
The percentage is computed on the total connection capacity of the device.
5. Enter the User Limit. If the User Limit Parameter is set to Percentage of Max Sessions, this
is the maximum number of sessions allowed from a single source machine as a percentage of
the total connection capacity. (Session Limit is per machine based.) Otherwise, if the User
Limit Parameter is set to Number of Sessions, the user limit is an absolute value.
