how to limit the maximum no. of request to my website in asp

Hi sir,
Tell me the steps to limit the maximum no. of request to my website in asp.net c#. Suppose if i set 100 person can access my website at the same time, if new user visit
my website it has to show "the server is temporarily busy please try again after a moment". Kindly give me the solution for this problem.

[Hint : I need to set only 100 online users to enter the website , if the 101th user enter the website it has to show error like "Server is busy". I need to avoid network
traffic for my website request]

For this you can make use of Server Side state Management Techniques and Application Life Cycle Events in Global.asax file of your application:

First of all create Page saying "Server is too busy" or any other mesage of your choice you want to display:

Now implemet the following functionality in your Gloabl.asax file

void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

Application["ActiveUsers"] = 0;
Application["AllowedUsers"] = 100;

}

void Session_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

try

{
// Locking here is done to keep the things Synchornized

Application.Lock();

if (Convert.ToInt32(Application["ActiveUsers"]) <= Convert.ToInt32(Application["AllowedUsers"]))
{

Response.Redirect(, true);
}
else
{
Although this will also become part of your Application because first it is coming to your application and then getting redirect but cannot access your application, so anyway you can keep the traffic low by showing only this message page

Application["ActiveUsers"] = Convert.ToInt32(Application["ActiveUsers"]) + 1;
}

}

finally

{

Application.UnLock();

}

void Session_End(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

Application.Lock();

Application["ActiveUsers"] = Convert.ToInt32(Application["ActiveUsers"]) - 1;

Application.UnLock();

}
