It looks like networking issues are causing the connection to either drop, or periodically drop (the SSL Connect error).

 

If the device has been discovered, and the connection is dropped, we will attempt to reconnect every few seconds or minutes, until reconnect is successful.

 

 

The Management Pack uses persistent socket connections between the Management Server and the F5 devices. You may try using telnet and keeping the session open for an extended period of time (minutes or hours) to verify there aren't intermittent networking issues.

 

 

Thanks,
