ServicePointManager.MaxServicePoints Property

.NET Framework 4

Gets or sets the maximum number of ServicePoint objects to maintain at any time.

Namespace: System.Net
Assembly: System (in System.dll)

static member MaxServicePoints : int with get, set

Property Value

Type: System.Int32
The maximum number of ServicePoint objects to maintain. The default value is 0, which means there is no limit to the number of ServicePoint objects.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	MaxServicePoints is less than 0 or greater than Int32.MaxValue.

Remarks

When you reduce the MaxServicePoints property below the number of ServicePoint objects currently in existence, the ServicePointManager deletes the ServicePoint objects with the longest idle times. If the number of ServicePoint objects with active connections is greater than the value of MaxServicePoints, the ServicePointManager object deletes the ServicePoint objects as they become idle.
