hi,

I no this is not legal on this his type of forum but i need Traffic Script i am not programmer my self that's why if some one gave me even for money i will buy it ...

SORRY for my bad English 

Hi

You can make a traffic script rule, which finds this querystring and then add's these requests to a ratelimit class - this will not "drop" the connections, but slow them down to the limit your are setting. If the hightraffic continues, then of cause connections will be dropped in the end...

Hi Kevin

This can hopefully be a great discussion and I'm sure, that no single solution fits all cases. My intuitive feeling is, that keep-alive is a good thing - also between zxtm<->apache - the cost of opening/closing tcp connections can be saved. I'm also of the impression, that the ZXTM cache is more effective than the Apache cache (again - we are saving the roundtrip times from zxtm to Apache), but I could be wrong.

I believe, that to find the best solution for your particular setup, you will first have to establish a performance measurement setup where you can make reproducible results and then fiddle with different settings. Once this setup is in place, then it would be great to see some results from various settings and strategies but also to know a bit about the site (number of backends, platforms, static vs. dynamic content, SSL vs. non-SSL and the likes).

If this thread is providing valuable information, then it is a great idea to make the topic sticky.

My personal experience is, that moving as mush work as possible to the zxtm is improving performance - so taking benefit of:

* content compression
* ssl offload
* content caching

is all improving performance - also on Apache based sites - but to be honest, I have done most performance analysis on Java backends :-)

Common guys - add your experience to the thread....

First wondering if anyone knows of some common sense / best practices / from the trenches info for running zxtm -> apache VM ??

Our site is running well but now I'd like to tweak apache for the best performance behind zxtm.. Just thinking in my head about things like KeepAlive On/Off, how many apache servers should we start up with? Min and Max for SpareServers, MaxRequestsPerChild.. Is it wise to run with a small mod_mem_cache cache defined.. (if using ztm cache/ or if not)

I know one solution will not fit all and that is why Zeus does not give authoritative settings for things that sit behind it, but there has to be some info glean-able from the community that others can make use of.

Examples: currently I use KeepAlive Off within apache and zxtm has KeepAlive On this is what I believe is recommended via [2]. I also run no mod_mem_cache and no zxtm cache

Secondly if we do get some responses here.. how about a sticky topic? or similar as this info would be pretty useful id think. If not this post will just remain idle and eventually roll off into the background.

I've looked around on the http://www.zeus.com site and they have a few things[1][2] but nothing that gets into nuts and bolts of apache per say.

Please tell me if this is possible with zeus.

I want to drop connections that meet a query string regex when the match is in excess of X requests per second.

If I start getting 100+ requests per second that contains the word foobar= in the query string then I want to drop all those connections until it slows down.

Thanks

Yes, it has great http inspection so we are not worried of any possible intrusions or attacks to our web applications.

Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone's having any issues since upgrading from 6.0r6 to 6.0r7 - cluster issues, problems pulling historical activity?

Cheers,

Hi,

A quick note that "Change Site" functionality is also available for RuleBuilder rules.
It's under "Actions" ->
under "Requests and Responses" section, expand "HTTP only" ->
click on "Change HTTP site".

Cheers,
Steven

Hi

It can be done with a single line of TrafficScrips:

From the manual:

Hi Guy´s,

i´ve a little question:
we want to do http-redirect to an https-Site:
here´s my rule
Conditions:

Actions:


But now we´ve a little Problem:
when somebody tries to call for example the site direct (because he saved this Linke in his favorites),
then he´ll be redirected to the Site which i specified in the Rule -> in this case: https://www.mysite.com

So my question:
how can i get it work that there´s an https-redirect for each site i call independent the URL that was called
eg:
So when I call
it should be redirect to -> or another call
should redirect to ->
or generally:
-> should be redirected to
Did somebody have an idea because i don´t want to specifiy a rule for every URL.

Regards
