IC77563: MONITORS CREATED BY ENABLE MMXDOS PROTECTION OPTION CANNOT BE REMOVED USING SERVICES.

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• Once MMXDoS protection is enabled within the XML Threat
  Protection tab for a Multi-Protocol Gateway service or
  Web Service Proxy, it cannot be disabled via navigation
  to Services > MPGW/WSP > Edit MPGW/WSP to Disable MMXDoS
  Protection
  option, removing associated monitors, and saving changes.
  

Local fix

• A different navigation path may be used to delete MMXDos:
  1. Go to Threat Protection tab and set Enable MMXDoS Protection
  to "off"
  2. Go to Monitors tab and delete the monitors.
  3. Apply configuration.
  

Problem summary

• Affected DataPower customers are those who turned on the 'Enable
  MMXDoS Protection' option in the XML Threat Protection tab from
  the Web Service Proxy or Multi-Protocol Gateway.
  
  Turning off the 'Enable MMXDoS Protection' option may not
  persist and will remain in the 'on' state.
  
  The monitors created when the option was turned on may not have
  been removed when the option was changed to the 'off' state.
  The fix will be in the next major release.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix
