Limitation on how many rules you can have in a Local traffic policy rules?

Hi All,

 

I just wanted to know if there are any limitation as far as how many redirect rules I can have in a Local traffic policy that

will be tied to a VIP. We are running 12.1.3 Code currently and want to create between 50 to 1,000 redirect rules.

 

Thanks!

    I think there's no as such limit defined for number of LTM policy, it is more dependent on memory and cpu capacity of ​the platform.

    "The maximum number of rules across active policies is limited by memory and cpu capability, but more than a thousand is starting to be a lot ."

    If you can design your matching ( e.g string, IPs) to reduce the number, rules, it would certainly help.
