BAll 11 requests will succeed without limit
CThe throttle resets after each request
DThe 11th request will be denied with a 429 error
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:

  1. Step 1: Understand AnonRateThrottle limit

    AnonRateThrottle limits anonymous users to 10 requests per day.

  2. Step 2: Analyze request count

    The 11th request exceeds the limit and triggers a throttle block.

  3. Final Answer:

    The 11th request will be denied with a 429 error -> Option D

  4. Quick Check:

    Anon requests over limit = 429 error [OK]
Quick Trick: Anonymous users get throttled after limit, no auto-authentication [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Assuming throttle resets after each request
