End of denial of service attack is not detected when all traffic flow stops through Dispatcher
 Technote (troubleshooting)
 
Problem(Abstract)
End of denial of service attack is not detected when all traffic flow stops through Dispatcher. Dispatcher does not detect the attack has stopped until traffic begins to flow again
 
Resolving the problem
For Dispatcher to discover that a denial of service attack has ended, there must be incoming traffic through the Dispatcher's cluster and port that was under attack. If all traffic stops, Dispatcher does not detect the attack has stopped until traffic begins to flow again.
