Last Modified: May 29, 2024

Affected Product(s):
BIG-IP LTM(all modules)

Fixed In:
17.1.0, 15.1.8

Opened: Aug 09, 2022

Severity: 1-Blocking

Symptoms

Crypto and compression were yielding low throughput when considered more than 32 vCPUs.

Impact

Less throughput.

Conditions

Always, crypto and compression were yielding low throughput when considered more than 32 vCPUs. Following is the RCA: - Maximum configuration files were 48, but 36 vCPUs need 54 Virtual Function (VF) and hence 54 VF configuration files. - A variable was not thread safe and hence not proper, need a fix.

Workaround

None

Fix Information

- By increasing the number of VF configuration files, earlier maximum configuration files were 48, but 36 vCPUs need 54 VFs and hence 54 VF configuration files. - A variable was not thread safe and hence not proper, it is made thread safe.
