Jalasoft.Xian.SmartManagementPacks.F5BigIp.RMPIncomingPackets.1.1 (AggregateMonitor)

This monitor catches Xian events that notifies when the Real machine port incoming packets if has changed its state.

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

Real machine port incoming packets is over threshold.

The number of incoming packets to a real machine port is above the maximum threshold configured in Xian Network Manager 2012.

Causes

Increase of network demand bound to a real machine port.

Resolutions

Evaluate real machine configuration to ensure that it is allowing the crucial packets. If required, implement additional security appliances, or evaluate a redistribution of demand to reduce incoming traffic to real machine.
