LimitRequestBody
Limit Maximum Size of Request Message Body
Syntax: LimitRequestBody A
Example: LimitRequestBody 512000
Since: Apache 1.3
This directive sets a maximum size (in bytes) for a request message body. The bytes argument must be an integer between 0 (meaning unlimited) to 2,147,483,647 (2 GB). If the client request exceeds the limit on the allowed size of the HTTP request message body, the server will return an error response instead of servicing the request. In this way, the directive gives the server administrator greater control over abnormal client request behavior, which may help prevent some forms of denial-of-service attacks.
