Abstract:
The present disclosure describes systems and methods for propagating port state to intermediary devices of a cluster in a static link aggregation environment. The methods and systems include a cluster comprising a plurality of intermediary devices in communication with a network device via a static link aggregation comprising aggregated ports from different intermediary devices of the cluster. A first device of the static link aggregation is configured to detect that a health of the first device is below a predetermined threshold and, responsive to the detection, identify one or more ports in the aggregated ports as down. A second device of the link aggregation is configured to, responsive to the identification, remove the ports from a distribution list for the static link aggregation. Upon detection that a health of a device is above a predetermined threshold, the first device may identify the ports as up.

Abstract:
A packet quota value, which indicates a maximum number of network packets that a network appliance processes before switching to a different task, is modified. Log data, which includes multiple log entries spanning a time interval, is accessed. Each log entry includes a processing time that indicates how much time the network appliance spent performing network traffic tasks before switching to the different task. The log data is analyzed. Responsive to the analysis indicating that a current state of network traffic is heavier than a maximum state of network traffic that was observed during the time interval, the packet quota value is increased. Responsive to the analysis indicating that the current state of network traffic is lighter than a minimum state of network traffic that was observed during the time interval, the packet quota value is decreased.
