Cloudflare's default WebSocket rate limit is 60 requests per minute per IP address. This is enforced through a combination of client-side and server-side mechanisms. Cloudflare tracks the number of WebSocket connections and messages sent from a specific IP address within a 60-minute window. If the rate is exceeded, new connection requests or message transmissions may be throttled or rejected with an error code (usually 429 - Too Many Requests).
