	CertificatesPerName RateLimitPolicy `yaml:"certificatesPerName"`

	// Note: Since this is checked before a registration is created, setting a
	// RegistrationOverride on it has no effect.
	RegistrationsPerIP RateLimitPolicy `yaml:"registrationsPerIP"`
	// Number of registrations that can be created per fuzzy IP range. Unlike
	// RegistrationsPerIP this will apply to a /48 for IPv6 addresses to help curb
	// abuse from easily obtained IPv6 ranges.
	// Note: Like RegistrationsPerIP, setting a RegistrationOverride has no

	// key are not applied, but overrides by registration are.

	// Number of invalid authorizations that can be failed per account within the
	// given window. Overrides by key are not applied, but overrides by registration are.

	// of DNS names.

	// For instance, a rate limit on the number of certificates per name uses name as
	// a key, while a rate limit on the number of registrations per IP subnet would
	// use subnet as a key.
	// Note that a zero entry in the overrides map does not mean "not limit," it
	// means a limit of zero.
	Overrides map[string]int `yaml:"overrides"`
	// A per-registration override setting. This can be used, e.g. if there are
	// hosting providers that we would like to grant a higher rate of issuance
	// than the default. If both key-based and registration-based overrides are
	// available, the registration-based on takes priority.
