Abstract
Various embodiments include methods and apparatuses limit connection resources at one or more first network nodes. In one method embodiment, at a second network node, a handshake message is detected; a pending network connection is randomly selected; and a message to end the randomly selected pending network connection is sent from the second node. Various embodiments have one or more elements that can begin if a total of pending network connections exceeds a threshold. In one apparatus embodiment, a packet sniffer component detects a handshake message; a random selection component is coupled to the packet sniffer and randomly selects a pending network connection; and a sending component is coupled to the random selection component and sends a message to end the randomly selected pending network connection. Various embodiments have one or more elements that can begin if a total of pending network connections exceeds a threshold.
