According to MSDN , the default value is 4096 KB (4 MB).
UPDATE
As for Maximum, since it is an int data type, you could theoretically go up to 2,147,483,647. I also wanted to make sure that you know that IIS 7 uses maxAllowedContentLength to indicate the file upload size . By default, it is set to 30,000,000 about 30 MB and is uint, it theoretically should allow a maximum of 4,294,967,295
