Actually when you have even more clients than your hardware can handle you
can't even bother to read the request and responde with a 453 or a 503 because
doing so would consume more of those precious resources that you don't have
enough of. Also 453 seems to be related to bandwidth reservation which is not
really what I'm trying to get at here. The scenario is a pure denial of service
attack using RTSP-clients that basically attempt to do DESCRIBE and then
disconnect.
