Maximum number of concurrent connections to the proxy server for non-WebSocket requests
Supported versions
- Windows: ≥ 77
- macOS: ≥ 77
- Android: ≥ 148
- iOS: Not supported
Description
Specifies the maximum number of simultaneous connections to a proxy server for non-WebSocket requests.
Some proxy servers cannot handle a high number of concurrent connections per client. In these cases, reducing the value of this policy can improve reliability.
However, some web applications maintain multiple long-lived connections (for example, hanging GET requests). Setting a value lower than the default may cause browser networking hangs if many such applications are open.
To modify WebSocket request limits, see MaxConnectionsPerProxyForWebSocket.
If you don't configure this policy, the default value of 32 is used.
The value must be between 6 and 256:
- Values lower than 6 are treated as 6.
- Values higher than 256 are treated as 256 (99 in versions of Microsoft Edge 147 and earlier).
We recommend changing this value from the default only if required by your proxy server configuration.
