Maximum connections to IIS from same IP?

Hi,

I'm running IIS 6.0 on a W2K3

I'm wondering if there is a limit in the IIS that limits number of
connections from the same IP-adress?

The reason I'm asking is that we have built a webservices application (as a
service) that connect to our IIS, but will there be trouble if we have many
applications on a single computer that are accessing the IIS from the sam IP
(other than hardware)?

Is there a limit on the client? In the back of my head I remember that IE
has a limit, but is that affecting the OS or is it only in IE?

Thanks,
Alexander

There is no limit.

Not even on the client accessing the IIS and downloading files?

IIS has no limit on things like that unless you specifically but a
limit on it. As far as IE goes, it puts a 2 download limit on
downloading from the same server by default. You can change a registry
value somewhere to change that.

Yes, there is a client-side limit, so that the client will only be able to
access a web server with a certain number of connections. If you're using
.NET's http libraries you can bump up the maxmimum number of connections.
But if you're talking about dozens or hundreds of connections, you may run
into hanging problems.
