GRE tunnel traffic can be sent to one TMM if BIG-IP doesn't proxy the GRE tunnel and uses forwarding virtual to handle GRE tunnel traffic.
GRE tunnel traffic can overwhelm the one TMM and cause performance degradation.
Use forwarding virtual to handle GRE tunnel traffic.
None.
Improved GRE tunnel traffic handling so traffic does not overwhelm one TMM and cause performance degradation.
