Пункт 186. Apache Module mod_reqtimeout
Description: | Set timeout and minimum data rate for receiving requests
|
Status: | Extension |
Module Identifier: | reqtimeout_module |
Source File: | mod_reqtimeout.c |
Compatibility: | Available in Apache HTTPD 2.2.15 and later |
---|
Examples
-
Allow for 5 seconds to complete the TLS handshake, 10 seconds to
receive the request headers and 30 seconds for receiving the
request body:
RequestReadTimeout handshake=5 header=10 body=30
-
Allow at least 10 seconds to receive the request body.
If the client sends data, increase the timeout by 1 second for every
1000 bytes received, with no upper limit for the timeout (except for
the limit given indirectly by
LimitRequestBody
):
RequestReadTimeout body=10,MinRate=1000
-
Allow at least 10 seconds to receive the request headers.
If the client sends data, increase the timeout by 1 second for every
500 bytes received. But do not allow more than 30 seconds for the
request headers:
RequestReadTimeout header=10-30,MinRate=500
-
Usually, a server should have both header and body timeouts configured.
If a common configuration is used for http and https virtual hosts, the
timeouts should not be set too low:
RequestReadTimeout header=20-40,MinRate=500 body=20,MinRate=500
RequestReadTimeout Directive
Description: | Set timeout values for completing the TLS handshake, receiving the request headers and/or body from client.
|
Syntax: | RequestReadTimeout
[handshake=timeout[-maxtimeout][,MinRate=rate]
[header=timeout[-maxtimeout][,MinRate=rate]
[body=timeout[-maxtimeout][,MinRate=rate]
|
Default: | handshake=0 header=20-40,MinRate=500 body=20,MinRate=500 |
Context: | server config, virtual host |
Status: | Extension |
Module: | mod_reqtimeout |
Compatibility: | Available in version 2.2.15 and later; defaulted to disabled in
version 2.3.14 and earlier. The handshake stage is available since version 2.4.29. |
This directive can set various timeouts for completing the TLS handshake,
receiving the request headers and/or the request body from the client.
If the client fails to complete each of these stages within the configured
time, a 408 REQUEST TIME OUT
error is sent.
For SSL virtual hosts, the handshake
timeout values is the time
needed to do the initial SSL handshake. If the user's browser is configured to
query certificate revocation lists and the CRL server is not reachable, the
initial SSL handshake may take a significant time until the browser gives up
waiting for the CRL. Therefore the handshake
timeout should take
this possible overhead into consideration for SSL virtual hosts (if necessary).
The body timeout values include the time needed for SSL renegotiation
(if necessary).
When an AcceptFilter
is in use
(usually the case on Linux and FreeBSD), the socket is not sent to the
server process before at least one byte (or the whole request for
httpready
) is received. The handshake and header timeouts
configured with RequestReadTimeout are only effective
after the server process has received the socket.
For each of the three timeout stages (handshake, header or body), there are
three ways to specify the timeout:
- Fixed timeout value:
stage=timeout
The time in seconds allowed for completing the whole stage (handshaking,
reading all of the request headers or body). A value of 0 means no limit.
- Disable module for a vhost::
handshake=0 header=0 body=0
This disables mod_reqtimeout
completely (note that
handshake=0
is the default already and could be omitted).
- Timeout value that is increased when data is
received:
stage=timeout,MinRate=data_rate
Same as above, but whenever data is received, the timeout value is
increased according to the specified minimum data rate (in bytes per
second).
- Timeout value that is increased when data is received, with an
upper bound:
stage=timeout-maxtimeout,MinRate=data_rate
Same as above, but the timeout will not be increased above the second
value of the specified timeout range.
