Cisco Server Load Balancing Server Farm Slow Start

1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.254.1.2.1.1.9

This object specifies that the connections to this serverfarm to be in slow start mode. In an environment that uses weighted least connections load balancing, a real server that is placed in service initially has no connections, and could therefore be assigned so many new connections that it becomes overloaded. To prevent such an overload, the slow start feature controls the number of new connections that are directed to a real server that has just been placed in service. This object is applicable if value of slbServerFarmPredictor is 'leastConns'.
