hi,

The aggregate traffic/s is not that high. Total connection is not that high as well.

However seems websvcs interface has high traffic compare to other interface.

If you have ASDM can you please check its log, do you see some unusual message?

if yes, please post here. It might be a traffic loop or some DOS message?

Also make sure you don't have http inspection enabled.

Thanks
