Hi Stefan,

 

Here are some ideas on further troubleshooting this to understand what happened. Firstly the easiest way to create a similar environment if you can't touch production is via the F5 Virtual Edition. Then you can take the existing interface configuration iRule and modify the iRule thresholds to something you can easily replicate. Once this is in place adding logging to the iRule will allow you to see what actions are being taken and why.

 

Hope this helps. Christian
