This measure is effective against Slowloris-style attacks from a single IP address, but it may not be as good against modified attacks that work by slowly sending request body content. This is because Apache to switches state to SERVER_BUSY_WRITE once request headers have been read. As an alternative, consider mod_reqtimeout (part of Apache as of 2.2.15), which is expected be effective against both attack types. See Blog post on mitigating slow DoS attacks - http://blog.spiderlabs.com/2010/11/advanced-topic-of-the-week-mitigating-slow-http-dos-attacks.html. v2.8.0 and newest supports the @ipMatch, @ipMatchF and @ipMatchFromFile operator along with the its negative (e.g. !@ipMatch) these were used to create suspicious or whitelist. When a suspicious list is informed, just the IPs that belongs to the list will be filtered. A combination of suspicious and whitelist is possible by using multiple definitions of SecConnReadStateLimit, note, however, that the limit will be always overwrite by its successor.
