Limit number of transactions received

Question

Is there a way to limit the number of transactions a channel receives during a specific time limit (rate-limiting)?

Answer 1

Yes, you would add a scheduled script that would run every few seconds. The script would check for the number of Inbound Messages and if it exceeds a predetermined number of message it would stop the source node. It would also check to see if the inbound number of messages has dropped below a predetermined number and then re-start the inbound node.

Note: it is important that the script is scheduled to run while the channel is paused.
