Hello Sir,
I am trying to implement rate limiting feature using HAroxy. My requirement
is to do rate limiting using a custom header . I have created the below
config file.
I have configured 40 request are allowed in 10 sec and anything above 40
should give 429 error.
But I am facing one problem while implementing this. My test scenario is as
follows :
Sl No. Number of Request/ 10 sec Result
1 30 All request passed
2 45 40 request pass and 5 gave 429 error code
3 60 All request gave 429
4 25 All request passed
In the scenario number 3 my expectation is 40 request should pass and 20
request should fail. But its failing all the requests. Remaining all
scenarios are working as expected.Am I missing something ? Please help .
Configuration :
frontend localnodes
bind *:80
mode http
default_backend nodes
acl document_request path_beg -i /
acl is_upload hdr_beg(CustomHeader) -i customKey
acl too_many_uploads_by_user sc0_gpc0_rate() gt 40
acl mark_seen sc0_inc_gpc0 gt 0
stick-table type string size 100k expire 1s store gpc0_rate(10s)
tcp-request content track-sc0 hdr(CustomHeader) if METH_GET or
METH_POST document_request is_upload
