The documentation for the maxconnection configuration value in the system.net connectionManagement section of a config file is confusing me. When you use a wildcard in the address - is that limit per host or is that limit shared by all hosts (that are not explicitly listed).
So, to use the example from the documentation itself - but imagining our application calls 3 hosts:
With a web.config or machine.config section like the following:
<configuration>
<system.net>
<connectionManagement>
<add address="http://www.contoso.com" maxconnection="4" />
<add address="*" maxconnection="2" />
</connectionManagement>
</system.net>
</configuration>
Does that mean example1 and example2 have 2 connections to share between them? Or do example1 and example2 get given 2 connections each (4 connections between them)?
Edit: forgot pertinent details - we're using .Net 4.7 ASP.Net MVC 5 (I believe - I'm new to this project)
