DNS licensed rate limits might be unintentionally activated.
DNS licensed rate limits might be unintentionally activated. Rate counters will activate, even though rates are unlimited, which unnecessarily uses CPU cycles. Also, features that indirectly look at rate flags such as hardware DNS, might deactivate improperly even though rates are unlimited.
This might occur with a license in which DNS services is unlimited, but BIG-IP DNS (formerly GTM) is limited.
None.
DNS licensed rate limits are now handled as expected.
