    you can probably check out https://wiki.synchro.net/howto:block-hackers#concurrent_connection_auto-filteri ng

    I have a firewall script that will block an IP address if it opens more than 3 connections to port 22 or 23 at a time, so I just have the scfg setting set to "Unlimited"

    Depends on which server and what your expected traffic is like.
