High connection rate detected

Cause

You may receive warning like this:

[warn] High rate of connection attempts detected: 1001 exceeds 1000: some functionality is disabled. This could be an attack, or lots of genuine users connecting after a network outage.
[warn] This message will appear every 10 minutes for as long as this is the case. You will NOT get a notification if all is normal again (which is evaluated every 5 seconds). See https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/FAQ#hi-conn-rate
