A virtual server's current connections-per-second statistic has a confusing name. The statistic is maintained when rate limiting is configured for a virtual server. The statistic is updated when the virtual hits a rate-limiting condition, and it stays at the last value it held when the limit was hit.
There is no functional impact, but the statistic's meaning is confusing.
If the rate limit is never configured then the value is 0. If the rate limit is configured and is hit, then the value is the active count when the limit was hit. The value stays at that count until the limit is hit again.
The MIB description should clarify the meaning of this statistic.
