## How To Enable
2019-06-06 10:57:40 +08:00
Here's an example, enable the limit req plugin on the specified route:
```shell
2020-03-05 14:48:27 +08:00
curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/routes/1 -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
2019-06-06 10:57:40 +08:00
{
2019-09-03 13:53:41 +08:00
"methods": ["GET"],
"uri": "/index.html",
"plugins": {
"limit-req": {
"rate": 1,
"burst": 2,
"rejected_code": 503,
"key": "remote_addr"
}
},
"upstream": {
"type": "roundrobin",
"nodes": {
"39.97.63.215:80": 1
}
}
2019-06-06 10:57:40 +08:00
}'
```
2019-09-19 01:17:05 +08:00
You can open dashboard with a browser: `http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/dashboard/` , to complete the above operation through the web interface, first add a route:
2020-03-20 23:03:59 +08:00
2019-09-19 01:17:05 +08:00
Then add limit-req plugin:
2020-03-20 23:03:59 +08:00
2019-09-19 01:17:05 +08:00
2019-11-24 21:15:39 +08:00
## Test Plugin
2020-03-20 23:03:59 +08:00
2019-06-06 10:57:40 +08:00
The above configuration limits the request rate to 1 per second. If it is greater than 1 and less than 3, the delay will be added. If the rate exceeds 3, it will be rejected:
2020-03-20 23:03:59 +08:00
2019-06-06 10:57:40 +08:00
```shell
curl -i http://127.0.0.1:9080/index.html
```
When you exceed, you will receive a response header with a 503 return code:
2020-03-20 23:03:59 +08:00
```html
2019-06-06 10:57:40 +08:00
HTTP/1.1 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: 194
Connection: keep-alive
Server: APISIX web server
< html >
< head > < title > 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable< / title > < / head >
< body >
< center > < h1 > 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable< / h1 > < / center >
< hr > < center > openresty< / center >

```
This means that the limit req plugin is in effect.

## Disable Plugin
2020-03-20 23:03:59 +08:00
2019-06-06 10:57:40 +08:00
When you want to disable the limit req plugin, it is very simple,
you can delete the corresponding json configuration in the plugin configuration,
no need to restart the service, it will take effect immediately:
2020-03-20 23:03:59 +08:00
2019-06-06 10:57:40 +08:00
```shell
2020-03-05 14:48:27 +08:00
curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/routes/1 -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
2019-06-06 10:57:40 +08:00
{
2019-09-03 13:53:41 +08:00
"methods": ["GET"],
"uri": "/index.html",
"id": 1,
"plugins": {
},
"upstream": {
"type": "roundrobin",
"nodes": {
"39.97.63.215:80": 1
