i run a high traffic server and have been studying the domumentation of this software, is there any settings i should be looking at specifically? does RUf set to 10 mean no more than 10 people can connect at once, or no?

RUF - Repetitive unwanted function. This attack may spam the server log and cause lag. This is a DoS (denial of service) attack attempt.
These settings aren't configurable for 224v: Nephthys uses the default settings here. Option Default Description
CountForRUF
TimeDeltaForRUF 10
10 Max. number of unwanted functions per TimeDeltaForRUF seconds counted for a single connection, more than this is considered to be a RUF (repetitive unwanted function) attack.
ReactRUF EAR_Kick How to react when a RUF attack is detected
ShowRUF ESM_Beep How to show detected RUF attacks to all admins

You are better off not changing anything until you determine a need. Zora did a good job with the default configuration to work on most server setups.

It is good to observe in-game and have a server log of what you would consider normal activity as a base reference. If players are being kicked over an attack detection for seemingly harmless activity then you assess if a detection threshold in question needs adjustment. Nephthys logs everything so you would see.
