 Description 
 =========== 

 mod_evasive is a very simplistic module to limit connections per IP. 

 Options 
 ======= 

 evasive.max-conns-per-ip 

   limits the number of connections per IP. 

   e.g.: :: 
  
     evasive.max-conns-per-ip = 3 

   You may also want to set up conditionals : 

   eg.: :: 

     evasive.max-conns-per-ip = 1 
    
     $HTTP["host"] == "example.com" { 
       evasive.max-conns-per-ip = 2 
     } 
     $HTTP["host"] == "example2.com" { 
       evasive.max-conns-per-ip = 0 
     } 

   0 means unlimited. 
   In this case, default sites get 1 connections, example.com 2 and example2.com unlimited.
