There are various connection preferences that may be used to define how users may connect to domain services you create. These preferences may be managed under the Connections and Services nodes.
General connection settings apply to all file transfer protocols including AS2, FTP/S, SFTP/SCP, HTTP/S, WebDAV and AFTP and may be set using the Connections node.
Figure 28
Max concurrent connections - The maximum number of concurrent connections allowed. Note: This value may not exceed the concurrent connection limit of your license type.
Max connections/IP - The maximum number of active connections from a single client IP address.
Max connections/user - The maximum number of active connections from a single user.
Max downloads/session - The maximum number of downloads per client session.
Max uploads/session - The maximum number of uploads allowed per client session.
Max file download size (MB) - The maximum file download size in MB.
Max file upload size (MB) - The maximum file upload size in MB.
Max uploads (MB) - Defines an upload quota for the domain that is reset every N days. If upload quota is exceeded no further uploads are allowed until upload quota is reset.
Max downloads (MB) - Defines a download quota for the domain that is reset every N days. If download quota is exceeded no further downloads are allowed until download quota is reset.
Max transfers (MB) - Defines a transfer quota for the domain that is reset every N days. If transfer quota is exceeded no further file transfers are allowed until transfer quota is reset. Transfers are the combined sum of uploads and downloads.
Disable account after X invalid password attempts in Y min - Disables account for a certain period of time if too many login attempts fail within a certain period of time.
Block IP after X invalid password attempts in Y min - Blocks IP from further access for a certain period of time if too many login attempts fails within a certain period of time.
FTP/S connection settings may be managed under the Services > FTP/S panel.

Require client certificate for data channel - If enabled users requesting data transfer using FTPS (FTP over SSL) will be required to supply data encrypted with a private key that maps to a server installed client certificate.
Block PASV attack - If enabled users will only be allowed to connect to passive data ports that are initiated by same client on command channel.
Shutdown SSL for CCC command - If enabled client must properly shutdown SSL connectiosn for command channel when issuing CCC command.
Shutdown SSL for data connection - If enabled client must properly shutdown SSL data connections.
