This sometimes results in somewhat unanticipated behaviour when dealing with internal redirects. Consider an example: {{{ limit_conn_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=addr:10m; server { listen 80; server_name site.com; index index.html; limit_conn addr 20; # first rule location / { limit_conn addr 10; # second rule root /var/www; } } }}} Since any request ends up in the only defined location, one would expect that the second rule would always be used. However, only the first rule is applied if we try to request http://site.com (that is, without relative reference part). If we move index directive inside the location though, the second rule will be used without exception. This may not be exactly a bug, but if this behaviour is ""by design"" some additional explanation might be worth mentioning in the documentation.
