Setting concurrent inbound connections

NoSpamProxy dynamically determines the number of parallel connections. The basis for this decision is the CPU and memory utilisation. To stop this behaviour, proceed as follows:

  1. Stop the Gateway Role.
  2. On the Gateway Role, go to C:\ProgramData\Net at Work Mail Gateway\Configuration\.
  3. Open the file Gateway Role.config.
  4. Search for the line that begins with the following characters:
    <netatwork.nospamproxy.proxyconfiguration...
  5. Add the following value below this line:
    <connectionLimits hardUpperConnectionLimit="NumberOfConnections" minimumNumberOfConcurrentSessions="NumberOfConnections" />
  6. Save the configuration file.
  7. Then start the Gateway Role.

If the values are not specified, as in this example, the dynamic limit applies (depending on the CPU load). Both values are integer values.

  • With the value hardUpperConnectionLimit you set the maximum limit of connections.
  • The value minimumNumberOfConcurrentSessions determines the minimum number of concurrent connections.

EXAMPLE:  <connectionLimits hardUpperConnectionLimit="100" minimumNumberOfConcurrentSessions="50" />
