Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

The GTM/DNS gateway_icmp monitor for IPv6 virtual servers sometimes returns 'state: timeout' even though big3d receives the packet successfully.

Impact

IPv6 virtual servers are marked down unexpectedly.

Conditions

- GTM/DNS provisioned. - IPv6 virtual server with gateway_icmp GTM/DNS monitor.

Workaround

Use a different gtm monitor type than gateway_icmp for IPv6 targets

Fix Information

None
