## Rate limiting
### Limiting the Request Rate
You can use Nginx' [Rate Limiting](https://www.nginx.com/blog/rate-limiting-nginx/) to slow | down brute force attacks.
The following zones are available:
| Zone name | Filter | Limit |
|--|--|--|
| `req_ip_one` | IP address | 30r/m |
| `req_ip_two` | IP address | 15r/m |
| `req_server_one` | Domain | 30r/m |
| `req_server_two` | Domain | 15r/m |
### Limiting the Number of Connections
You can also limit the number of [connection](https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/security-controls/controlling-access-proxied-http/):
| Zone name | Filter | Limit |
|--|--|--|
| `con_ip_one` | IP address | No default limit |
