TCP flows going through the IP forwarding and L2 forwarding virtual server might get very low bandwidth.
Lower throughput than expected.
-- BWC policy applied. -- TCP traffic passes through the IP forwarding or L2 forwarding virtual server.
When using BWC, use a proxy virtual server instead of IP forwarding or L2 forwarding virtual servers.
TCP flows going through the IP forwarding and L2 forwarding virtual server no longer affect bandwidth.
