Excessive broadcast traffic can cause backplane F5CDP packets to be dropped by the FPGA metering. This issue affects the stability of the backplane and the overall health of the clustering system. When CDP packets are dropped, critical network topology and device information may not be communicated effectively, leading to potential disruptions and degraded performance in the cluster.
Chassis backplane and clustering issues.
If Excessive broadcast traffic the backplane might become unstable.
None
Upgrade BIG-IP with fix that includes F5CDP packet backplane fix.
