- In the DNS area, view theEffective Rate Limit (RPS),Object Count, andRate Rejectsstatistics.Statistic typeDescriptionEffective Rate Limit (RPS)The number of DNS name resolution requests per second the BIG-IP system handles based on the rate-limited license installed on the system.Object CountThe sum of these objects configured on the BIG-IP system: DNS Express zones, DNS cache resolvers, and DNSSEC zones.Rate RejectsThe number of DNS requests that the BIG-IP system has rejected based on the rate limit of the license installed on the system.
- In the DNS area, view theRate Limit (RPS)andRate Rejectsstatistics.Statistic typeDescriptionRate Limit (RPS)The number of DNS name resolution requests per second the BIG-IP system handles based on the rate-limited license installed on the system.Rate RejectsThe number of DNS requests that the BIG-IP system has rejected based on the rate limit of the license installed on the system.
- In the Global Traffic Management area, view theEffective Rate Limit (RPS),Object Count, andRate Rejectsstatistics.Statistic typeDescriptionEffective Rate Limit (RPS)The number of DNS name resolution requests per second the BIG-IP DNS system handles based on the rate-limited license installed on the system.Object CountThe sum of these objects configured on the BIG-IP DNS system: data centers, wide IPs, wide IP aliases, servers, pools, pool members, virtual servers, iRules, and topology records.Rate RejectsThe number of DNS requests that the BIG-IP DNS system has rejected based on the rate limit of the license installed on the system.The BIG-IP DNS license includes the DNS Services license. Global traffic management requests (requests for wide IPs) are a subset of DNS requests. Therefore, when the number of requests that BIG-IP DNS receives for a wide IP exceeds the DNS Services rate limit, theRate Rejectscount for DNS increments, rather than theRate Rejectscount for Global Traffic Management incrementing.

- Bytes In
- Bytes Out
- Backlogs
- Bytes Dropped
- To determine if the cache is too small, view the number in the Evictions column.
