-Allows you to restrict the number of parallel connections to a server per
-client IP address (or client address block).
-.TP
-[\fB!\fP] \fB--connlimit-above\fP \fIn\fP
-Match if the number of existing connections is (not) above \fIn\fR.
-.TP
-\fB--connlimit-mask\fR \fIprefix_length\fR
-Group hosts using the prefix length. For IPv4, this must be a number between
-(including) 0 and 32. For IPv6, between 0 and 128.
-.P
-Examples:
-.TP
-# allow 2 telnet connections per client host
-iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --syn --dport 23 -m connlimit --connlimit-above 2 -j REJECT
-.TP
-# you can also match the other way around:
-iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --syn --dport 23 -m connlimit ! --connlimit-above 2 -j ACCEPT
-.TP
-# limit the number of parallel HTTP requests to 16 per class C sized \
-network (24 bit netmask)
-iptables -p tcp --syn --dport 80 -m connlimit --connlimit-above 16
---connlimit-mask 24 -j REJECT
-.TP
-# limit the number of parallel HTTP requests to 16 for the link local network \
-(ipv6)
