You can configure the rate limit at the service level. When you configure the rate limit at the service level, you can add a dedicated rule to each of the services.

To configure the rate limit at the service level:

  1. On the vConnect module’s dashboard, click the Rate Limit tab.
  2. After you click the Rate Limit tab, the Rate Limit page opens.
  3. On the Rate Limit page, click the Service tab.
  4. Under the Service tab, click Add Rule.

Following are the configuration details :

Field Description
