Hi,

actually, I only need one limit for all users. I can exempt some calls based on IP from the limit.

for all users should just work using one pipe.

If you want per user, I already committed on master branch to have dynamic pipes, see:

http://kamailio.org/docs/modules/devel/modules/pipelimit.html#pipelimit.f.pl_check

You should be able to just replace pipelimit from master in a 4.1 branch clone.

If you try it, let me know if works ok.

Thanks for the input on how to implement it with the existing modules.

Best Regards,

Sebastian

Hello,

do you need with different limits for each user and method? Considering to add a default limit and algorithm for dynamic pipes that could be added at runtime, without prior definition.

Right now you can probably get it with htable.
- set a maximum lifetime for items to the period you want to count
- for each request you add an item with some random key and value being the user
- use $sthcv(...) to count the number of items that have the value of the user

Hi,

I'm looking for a solution to limit the number of call initiations or OPTIONS packets or REGISTER packets per user. Neither pike, nor pipelimit or ratelimit give me the possibility to do this. Limiting it based on the source IP is not an option in our case.

Is there a module I can use? Or is this generally a bad idea?
