Hi,
On linux it is possible to do this at the firewall using iptables rules. Some
ESGF nodes did this early in development, although we don't use it any more. I
don't have the configuration notes to hand but a quick google brings up some
useful links. E.g.

Subject: [thredds] max connections from one ip
Dear THREDDS team,
is there a possibility to limit the maximum count of connections from one IP
address in THREDDS? Or something simlilar?
A THREDDS user just downloaded many Files per HTTPServer by wget and obviously
used many simultaneous connections. This slowed our Apache-Webserver down
because its maximum count of incoming connections has been exceeded. What can I
do to avoid that?
Thank you very much in advance!
Remon
