Effect of System.Net Connection Management

Question

  <system.net>
    <connectionManagement>
      <add maxconnection="1000" address="*"/>
    </connectionManagement>
  </system.net>

Can someone tell me if this setting affects my WCF (basicHttpBinding) services?

Answer 1

No.

From MSDN.

This class is used to specify the maximum number of simultaneous connections to a remote computer.

Answer 2

Generally, the maximum amount of connections is a value that your server setup can support. This is based on the physical makeup of your server(s), the normal load the server(s) are under, and your Internet connection speed. There is no one value that is right for everyone.
