IIS 7 Tip # 5 Run a command when Rapid Fail Protection is triggered

Rapid-Fail Protection disables application pools if they crash multiple times within in a specified time period. This prevents the failing application pool from getting into a continuous loop of crashing and restarting. This protects other application pools running on the server as repeated failures can consume lot of system resources. When rapid-fail protection kicks in it stops the application pool that is repeatedly crashing and your clients will start getting a 503 – Service Unavailable error. An administrator will have to manually enable the application pool again.
You also have to option to configure an executable to run when ever rapid-fail protection is triggered. For example below I have configured the application pool to restart the IIS service using iisreset.exe … the /rebootonerror will reboot the whole server if iisreset.exe for some reason fails to restart the services.

IPv4 header to requests when a client is using IPv6

  What is Pseudo IPv4? As a stopgap to accelerate the adoption of IPv6, Cloudflare offers Pseudo IPv4 which supports IPv6 addresses in legacy applications expecting IPv4 addresses.

Intrusion detection system

An   intrusion detection system   ( IDS ) is a device or   software application   that monitors network or system activities for malicious activities or policy violations and produces reports to a management station.  IDS come in a variety of “flavors” and approach the goal of detecting suspicious traffic in different ways. There are network based (NIDS) and host based (HIDS) intrusion detection systems. Some systems may attempt to stop an intrusion attempt but this is neither required nor expected of a monitoring system.  Intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPS) are primarily focused on identifying possible incidents, logging information about them, and reporting attempts. In addition, organizations use IDPSes for other purposes, such as identifying problems with security policies, documenting existing threats and deterring individuals from violating security policies.  IDPSes have become a necessary addition to the security infrastru...
