If I understand correctly, limit_req only works if the same connection is used for each request. My goal with limit_conn and limit_conn_zone would be to prevent someone from circumventing limit_req by opening a new connection for each request. Given that, why would my limit_conn/limit_conn_zone config be any different from my limit_req/limit_req_zone config? - Grant > Should I basically duplicate my limit_req and limit_req_zone > directives into limit_conn and limit_conn_zone?
