How to find a source IP that is overloading an F5 LTM?
Hi All, we see our bandwitdh and CPU resources spiking at certain times of the day on our VE F5 LTM.
Is there a way of finding out the source IP of the offending server\device from the F5 itself?
many thanks

Shay, you have 3 options. 1) create a logging irule and apply to VIPs that are suspected of being hit during these spikes, 2) better still use High Speed Logging and log off box and 3) perhaps make use of AVR - i can't say too much on this as not used it much but would need provisioning and has overhead too.
Hope this helps,
Nathan
