I am managing a customer's Firepower 4115 as a firewall.
There were situations in which service was delayed for a very short period of time.
High connection counts and CPU usage were observed on the Firepower Management Center during service delays.
The number of connections per second was recorded higher than the number listed in the datasheet.
As far as I know, the limit of connections per second is 200K.
The number of records observed was over 300K.
What are the expected impacts in this situation?
Doesn't it affect existing connections?
