Virtual server remains in syncookie mode even after the syn flood stops. As a result of this issue, you might see the following symptoms: -- Virtual servers that use both FastL4 and HTTP profiles might show incorrect 'Current SYN Cache' stats. -- Virtual stats 'Current SYN Cache' does not decrease.
The virtual server stays stuck in syncookie mode after the synflood is over, and does not recover.
This issue occurs when the configuration contains a virtual server that uses FastL4 as a filter (for example, has both the FastL4 profile and layer 7 profile (HTTP) syn flood to the virtual server).
None.
Virtual servers that use both FastL4 and HTTP profiles will have correct syn cache stats.
