Description
This docu page https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/appendix/application-properties/index.html#application-properties.server.server.tomcat.max-connections states: "Maximum number of connections that the server accepts and processes at any given time. Once the limit has been reached, the operating system may still accept connections based on the "acceptCount" property."
But if you search for "acceptCount" you will find nothing. I assume https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/appendix/application-properties/index.html#application-properties.server.server.tomcat.accept-count server.tomcat.accept-count is meant with it. so I wanted to add a proper link to this property, however, it looks the adoc https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/blob/v3.3.4/spring-boot-project/spring-boot-docs/src/docs/antora/modules/appendix/pages/application-properties/index.adoc is broken, at least I cannot find the sources where those properties are documented.

Research direction
Start with spring-boot-project/spring-boot-docs/src/docs/antora/modules/appendix/pages/application-properties/index.adoc and inspect how the application-properties pages are sourced or generated. Verify the server.tomcat.max-connections entry and its reference to acceptCount, then ensure it links to server.tomcat.accept-count and that searching the rendered documentation finds the referenced property.
