Bandwidth control and limit number of connections not available

Obsidian 32

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION

Since Obsidian 18.0.32 mod_bw is deprecated. Source https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/...ailable-for-domains-in-Plesk-Obsidian-18-0-32

Cgroups is mentioned as a solution, but Cgroups has neither of these features. So it would be nice to extend Cgroups here or provide an alternative for mod_bw. Too many page requests from one IP is a common problem.

This article is wrong too. It should (maybe) renamed to "How to set resources limits for domains in Plesk?"

@Azurel Thank you for the report, but note that such a report with "see description" instead of details will not be forwarded to the developers next time.

Yes, you are correct. Articles are not correctly named and formulated. We will remake them so as not to confuse users.
Cgroups Manager can't be used directly as a replacement for mod_bw: mod_bw limits network bandwidth, Cgroups Manager limits disk bandwidth.

There is no good replacement in Plesk, to be honest.

As a possible workaround, you can use advanced firewall rules created manually. Or advanced and manual rules for fail2ban are also a complicated and really custom solution for experienced Linux administrators.
