Knowledge Base article:

Summary

This rule collects this performance counter for reporting/troubleshooting purposes for the counter: PERF_PEER_CONNECTIONS_ABOVE_LIMIT_DROPPED

The total number of connections that were dropped because the limit on number of incoming connections from a federated partner or clearinghouse was exceeded.

Causes

The network connectivity with the federated partner or clearinghouse is unstable, or an administrator of the remote domain has configured too many servers to communicate with your domain.

Resolutions

Check to resolve network connectivity problems with the federated partner or clearinghouse, or ask the administrator of the remote domain to limit the number of servers communicating with your domain.
