If an Apache server receives a single HTTP request with multiple ranges requested in the header, in the access log, does it log one entry per range requested, or just one entry like normal?
The reason I ask is because we've been seeing a large number of log entries from certain user agents, which is similar to the issue described here - Apache - disable range requests - disadvantages?
What I'm not sure about, is whether the user-agent is genuinely sending 000s of requests like the logs indicate - in which case we need some sort of network flood control in front of apache - or whether the large number of logs is misleading and actually there is only one real HTTP request, in which case the solution in the link above is sufficient.
I can't find any info on this specifically in the Apache docs or by googling.
